Weather has a major bearing on the outcome of any flight. There have been great strides in the science of meteorology from the early days of flight and is very relevant to the pilots of today. The learning objectives for the JAR ATPL (A) examination require an understanding of the fundamentals of meteorology such as the effects of pressure, density, and temperature in the atmosphere before studying stability, cloud formation, and precipitation. Since wind is a critical element for flight planning and the operation of the aircraft, it is discussed in detail in this volume. The text also covers meteorological hazards to aviation such as thunderstorms, icing, wind shear, and turbulence. The interpretation of meteorological messages, synoptic, and upper wind charts is also discussed.

Since the Airline Transport Pilot may be required to operate anywhere in the world, this volume also includes an extensive section on global and regional climatology.
This new 2005 manual is part of the most current set of JAA ATPL training books on the market. The philosophy of these manuals is to train pilots to fly safely and competently, not just pass the exams. To this end, the material is thorough and comprehensive, yet the books utilise full-color graphics and diagrams that make complex topics easier to grasp. The complete set of 15 volumes contains nearly 4,000 pages.
The Technoline WS1600 Wireless Professional Weather Station is the ideal weather station for those weather enthusiasts looking for a low cost metrological system that measures and displays weather data from the comfort of their own home.

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.
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.
Everything you need is included in the box other than 4 AA cells. You even get a short support mast and clamps to attach the assembled sensors to. There is a generous amount of cable to interconnect the sensors to each other, BUT YOU NEED NO CABLE back to the LCD control console that you use indoors,. That is the beauty of wireless control. You can mount the sensors up to 50m away from the LCD panel and not a cable in sight!
The lovely LCD panel is large and is touch conrolled. That's right, you even get a comprehensive touch screen for the price! Customers are bowled over when they look at what they get for the money. Just imagine being able to see all the weather parametrs on a screen that is not tethered by cable. You can take the panel around the house and use in any room you like.
