What The Faa Requires You To Know As A Pilot. 27 September, 1997 Published as an official FAA Advisory Circular, Aviation Weather (and the accompanying book AC 00-45 Aviation Weather Services) contains the info you will be required to know to pass the FAA private, commercial, and instrument rating written examinations. Aviation Weather is written in an easy-to-understand manner. It discusses the various cloud formations, formation of warm, cold, occluded, and stationary fronts, the life cycle of thunderstorms, winds (both surface and aloft), icing, and many other weather phenomena. Profusely illustrated with charts, graphs, photos, and diagrams. Understand this and you will know how to "fly the weather" competently. A classic book that all pilots should have in their library, with info that will never become outdated.

Poor 06 October, 2002 I had to buy this book for one of my classes and fell asleep many times while trying to read the assigned chapters. I have seen books that are much more interesting and do a better job explaining weather (Jeppesen: Aviation Weather).

A Time Treasured Book 29 August, 2008 This book has been around for a long time and continues to be used in flight training. I enjoy the simplicity of the illustrations and explanations of weather. I believe this book will continue to be used for years to come.
