"In Weather Reports, Forecasts & Flight Planning, you'll find more than weather theory and simple assessment information. Terry Lankford gives you: hands-on advice on pilot interpretation and application of diverse weather information; the voice of experience in applying real-life techniques to specific situations; pilot-tested, best-practice procedures for all types of conditions, forecasts, and flight planning; vital information on challenges such as vorticity, icing, low-level wind shear, thunderstorms, and turbulence; a pilot-savvy understanding of the limitations and evolution of weather forecasting; and clarifications of dangerous misunderstandings and misconceptions about weather forecasts and terminology."--BOOK JACKET.

Whether you are a student pilot or a CFII or ATP, this book is for you. Most accidents were due to pilots flying into weather that was obvious hours before their flight. Here you'll learn the unique skill of the Preflight Weather Brief to quickly (in about 15 minutes) and accurately assess preflight weather risks.
