Description

This is a publication that no aviator should be without. Advisory Circular 00-6B is the FAA’s official and current handbook of meteorology for aviation. This clear, concise handbook is filled with full-color diagrams and illustrations to bring understanding and clarity to an often complex subject. Earth’s atmosphere, common IFR procedures, high-altitude weather, special area weather considerations, tropical systems, ground and airborne radar, icing, and even space weather is discussed in detail. Many of the FAA Knowledge Exam’s weather questions are pulled right from this text. Use with Advisory Circular 00-45E, ‘Aviation Weather Services’.

NOTE: This version (AC 00-6B) was released on 8/23/2016 and cancels AC 00-6A, ‘Aviation Weather for Pilots and Flight Operations Personnel’.
