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.
The study of Meteorology is a fundamental part of any pilot training programme. A thorough understanding of weather theory, and the ability to interpret weather-briefing documents, are absolutely essential to all pilots, not just to prepare them to pass their theoretical knowledge examinations, but also to ensure that, throughout their flying careers, they can make informed and accurate decisions about how prevailing or forecast weather conditions will affect flying operations.
Above all, a full understanding of how the weather influences aircraft operations is crucial to Flight Safety.
This book on Meteorology from Oxford Aviation Training will enable pilots to learn all they need to know about the weather, in order to fly safely and expeditiously, either locally or en-route.
Weather is the national obsession, but what causes the weather and how does it work? The Weather Whys DVD explains the fascinating world of weather to beginners and experts alike.

W-8681 MKII Weather Station comes with the W-8681-ST1 solar power transmitter instead of the standard battery powered transmitter found in the original WS8681
The W-8681-S wireless transmitter uses solar energy to recharge it's internal AA size rechargeable batteries. This product will power all the sensors connected to it and transmit the data to the main unit.
The W-8681MKII is a wireless weather station that requires no connecting cable between the LCD monitor and the remote weather sensors. The range depends upon local obstructions but the normal 150m range will satisfy most requirements. The time and date are locked to the German DCF longwave atomic standard signal (can be received in UK) so the time is always right. This weather station offers amazing value and comes with everything you need to set it up in the garden. All hardware is included and the only items you need to supply are a short mast to attach the supplied stub mast and sensor assembly.
The LCD display is touch operated and allows comprehensive adjustment and correction for your location. It can also display historic data, and within the menu you can select imperial or metric values. Also included is a software programme that allows you to link your LCD panel to your PC via the included USB lead. From here you can not only programme the LCD panel, but you can also download stored data and then display it in data base format for keeping your own weather history. And if you are in an area or situation where weather plays a critical part, then you can switch on an alarm that can be triggered by any of the data sensors.

Watson W-8684 Inside / Outside Temperature Monitor
This compact inside / outside thermometer combines temperature information, with a bedside clock. Designed for a range of domestic and office uses. The large clear display can be hung on the wall or used free standing. The remote sensor is wireless linked and has a range of up to 100m and has its own LCD display. The external sensor is protected against damp but must be placed in an area protected from direct rain and water.
This unit is intended for a whole range of domestic uses where there is a requirement or interest in outdoor and indoor temperatures. Rear panel controls permit setting up the selected parameters, and the convenience of “no wires” enables the outside sensor to be placed anywhere up to 50m away from the main unit.
The W-8685 is constructed with a strong plastic case. The external sensor
is not waterproof, but is well sealed and so should be placed in a spot which is
sheltered from rain.
