Training for aviators


Aviation meteorology


Our training is designed to help pilots make the best possible use of the latest weather information. We cover basic meteorological theory - general circulation, air masses, fronts, and so on - with an emphasis on practical case studies. Pilots are encouraged to look at standard weather information, and learn how to understand and interpret the finer points.

  • Learn how to make more informed decisions on the best options for safe flying, both at the planning stage and in the air
  • See aviation forecasts being created, the tools that forecasters use, and any problems encountered
  • Question forecasters and instructors on any topics of meteorology that you may be unsure of
