In this CAL module you will learn to detect areas with a risk of clear air turbulence. This will be done with the help of satellite images, soundings, flight reports and analyses of upper troposphere geopotential.
The module will help you to
- master the Significant Weather Chart (SWC) from the WAFC London
- publish and monitor text forecasts including Clear Air Turbulence (CAT)
- publish and monitor SIGMETs
- detect and monitor the course of the jet axis by comparing satellite images with the model output
- offer individual flight weather consulting for IFR flights
