Title:
Making an Informed IFR Weather Go/No Go Decision
Topic:
Real World Weather Decision Making for Safe Flight
Speaker(s):
Dean Jones, ATP, CFI-I (SEL, MEL), SF50 Type
Brief Description:
With the advent of Foreflight, Aviationweather.gov and a myriad of other weather tools, there has never been more data available to make the Go/ No Go weather decision. While a quick review of Foreflight’s briefing output for local VFR flights may be sufficient, making the IFR decision, during dynamic weather, can add to the complexity of making the Go/No Go decision.
This presentation will utilize a case study, with actual weather data, to demonstrate a method to make the Go/No Go decision. This method enables the pilot to capture key weather data, including cross checking Forefight and Aviationweather.gov to make a comprehensive weather decision. A visual 3- strike rule will aid in making this all-important decision.
