Brief Description:
Confused by the alphabet soup of FIS-B, TIS-B, ADS-B out, ADS-B In, UAT, 1090ES, AWOS, ASOS and more? Are you complying with FAA weather knowledge expectations before you fly? Do you know the elements of an acceptable self-briefing and where to obtain all that information? What does Flight Service do for you in the modern digital age? How do you get inflight weather? What old weather products and services no longer exist? These are the types of questions answered in this monthly seminar. Attend and you'll be smarter and safer as you navigate through the changing weather we see everyday.
