Produktinformationen zu „Climatology for Airline Pilots (PDF)“
Climatology - particularly the study of difficult and demanding
weather conditions - is of major importance to pilots now that
aeroplanes fly over previously unavailable routes such as the North
Pole and take direct routes over very large oceans.
Existing books on climatology address physical, biological or
cultural environments and do not supply adequate information for
the pilot. Nor do the present books on aviation meteorology provide
sufficient detail on subjects such as arid climates, tropical
storms and upper tropospheric winds and temperatures.
This new book concentrates on aspects of climatology that are
important for modern aviation, including temperature,
precipitation, solar radiation, winds and regional climatic
environments from around the world.
Although the book has been written with the airline pilot in
mind, it will also be an essential reference for Air Transport
Pilot Licence training staff and for ATPL students. It will also be
of interest to operational route planning staff and students of
climatology.
