It covers surface observations such as wind, visibility, runway visual range, cloud classification, and weather phenomena, explaining METAR and TAF syntax and interpretation. The module details upper‑air data, including radiosonde measurements, Skew‑T/Log‑P charts, and significant weather charts for flight planning.
It also explores radar, satellite imagery, and data‑link systems like ASDAR and ACARS, and discusses special warnings such as AIRMETs and SIGMETs. Practical examples illustrate how pilots use these tools for safe flight operations. By integrating these resources, aviators can anticipate weather hazards, optimize routes, and maintain situational awareness throughout the flight.
