The first part looks at weather satellites: how they work, how pilots and aviation-associated persons can interpret and apply satellite images, ultimately to avoid flight hazards. Equal emphasis and explanation is given to the limitations of satellite imagery in flight applications. Weather radar fundamentals are outlined in the second part: products and equipment, limitations, and application in the flight environment. The text closes with a section on risk evaluation and decision-making. Reference information and maps to plot radar locations, along with lists to decode location identifiers, are provided. It explains limitations of satellite and radar resources to flight application, and draws the relationship between satellite, radar and lightning detection.
