Weather is the most critical and complex variable that affects your flying. But you don’t have to be a meteorologist to understand what makes weather, and use that understanding to help make sound flight decisions. This is what being weather wise is all about—the ability to integrate official reports and forecasts with what you can see outside to cope with changing flight conditions in the real world.
This safety briefing will provide analysis of weather products and a systematic method of reviewing and evaluating the existing and forecast weather. Sharing by experienced pilots is highly encouraged and everyone from students to "old pelicans" can benefit.
Driving Directions: Turn North off NYS Route 13 onto Warren Road;(1 mile then right on Brown Road (into airport entrance). Drive straight and look for the building with the airport beacon on it (Red brick) and park on the far side.
