ATPL Training Manual 9: Meteorology, comprehensively covers the JAR-FCL syllabus and Learning Objectives for this subject and also includes specimen revision and test questions and answers. It aims at imparting a better understanding of all aspects of meteorology, as it applies to flight operations. Such knowledge is essential to a pilot’s understanding of how weather-related in-flight hazards arise and how they should be predicted, avoided and dealt with.
Oxford Aviation Training and the Met Office have developed a self-teach, media-rich, interactive Computer Based Training (CBT) course of theoretical and practical Meteorology aimed at both student and qualified pilots. Instruction is up to JAA ATPL level, but as the course is designed for beginners it is suitable for CPL and PPL pilots, too.
The main aim of this Computer Based Training is to give pilot-oriented training in Aviation Met theory and to teach pilots to use this theory to interpret met forecasts and reports in order to plan safe and expeditious flying sorties. The secondary aim of the CBT is to teach pilots how to extract and interpret met information from the Met Office's web site.
This new weather station has just been released and offers more features than any other similar product, and all at an amazing price.
