Aviation Meteorology: Airport Weathercourse is aviation and airline related course where you will learn to read and interpret airport weather information. My intention is that you understand the practical usage of weather for aviation and learn how it can impact airline operations and aircraft performance. The course is built from Airline Operations and Dispatch perspective based on my own more than 10 years’ experience in this field.

The structure of the course is following:

Introduction

Aerodrome weather observations

Aerodrome weather forecast

Practical use of aerodrome weather

You will learn such topics as Meteorological Aerodrome Report (METAR), Aerodrome Weather Forecast (TAF), Dangerous and Severe weather, Wind components, Weather Depiction Chart, Runway Status Report, SNOWTAM (including Global Reporting Format (GRF)), Weather impact on aircraft operations and performance, Alternate aerodromes, Approach categories and much more!

The objective of this course for you is to be well oriented in Aviation Meteorology practical implementation, and get deep theoretical knowledge on the subject. For better understanding the course contains a lot of graphical information, practical examples, additional reading materials and quizzes after each section.

I encourage you to begin this journey to Aviation Meteorology and you will not regret it! If you have any questions during the course feel free to contact me, I will answer as quick as possible!
