MET books?

Post by dirk82 »

Im looking for some good suggestions for books on aviation Meteorology. Ive got FTGU, commercial cul hanes (junk) and the sharper edge but It's still the section I'm struggling with the most. Any suggestions would be great. Thanks guys.

Have you looked at the Air Command Weather Manual. If you are savvy you can probably download it for free somewhere. The thing is older than dirt.

Also, don't forget to get 2011 update....that I know you can download for free.

Edit: Buddy above beat me to it.

But here it is for free

http://instruction.webs.com/resources.htm I think it is missing chapter one.

And here is the 2011 update

This is excellent for learning to decode metars, tafs, and other met products.

I know it is a long shot, since this thread is so old, but does anyone know if the 2011 update is still available? The link provided above is now dead.

Is chapter 1 just an introductory chapter? I was thinking that's why it was not included in the BDA link.

Thanks in advance.

This is the one I'm reading now, and so far seems very good!
