In Flight Weather Essentials for Pilots Recorded Class
There's no doubt that fair weather environments and severe clear conditions provide the best flying experience. However, pilots that use their aircraft to travel longer distances and those that fly more frequently will inevitably increase their exposure to some adverse weather. This class will enable you to recognize serious adverse weather environments both in how to avoid them and provide guidance on how to negotiate the best path out of them or around them.
In a nutshell, this eight-week course is specifically directed at certificated private/commercial pilots, flight instructors and designated pilot examiners who feel their preflight weather planning skillset is significantly lacking. It is open to pilots with and without an instrument rating. Putting it succinctly, this is designed to take the serious cross country pilot to the next level.
