Sport Pilots fly lower and slower than General Aviation pilots, so weather plays a critical factor in your flying.

Weather to Fly - for Sport Pilots DVD is straightforward and beautiful presentation features time-lapsed cinematography of cloud formations, in-air footage, and animations.

This DVD simplifies complex weather concepts as well as illustrates consequences of pilot judgment in a 5-step system specific to Sport Pilots and light-sport aircraft operations. You will learn to forecast local conditions, interpret weather information accurately, make better decisions about "whether to fly", and learn to see trends so you "get smarter each time you fly." Includes booklet with worksheets for an interactive learning experience.
