Continuing the tradition of fantastic aviation weather seminars, Michael Cetinich of Jeppesen will present this three-part seminar decoding aviation weather products, both text-based and graphical.
The first part is a look at the variety of weather information and sources available along with decoding and understanding where it comes from.
After a short break, we will have an in-depth look at resources available to access and understand aviation weather.
Finally we'll have a near-real time flying scenario and look at the weather to help determine a go/no-go decision and/or alternatives.
Seating is limited, so please sign up only if you are likely to attend. If you sign up and are unable to attend, please let us know.
