Abstract:

A study was conducted to identify/verify weather factors important to the conduct of aviation activities and ; that would be important to consider in systems intended to operate within the NextGen environment. The ; study reviewed weather-information systems available for General Aviation aircraft at that time. The report ; presents a listing of recognized aviation weather hazards followed by rankings, by General Aviation pilots, ; of weather data elements associated with these hazards. ; This is followed by a listing of pilot-accessible sources for the relevant weather data and examples of ; graphical presentations of much of the data. Included is a brief listing and discussion of avionics systems ; able to host these graphical data. Recommendations are provided for the presentation of weather data in the ; cockpit, the incorporation of decision aids, forecasts, reliability labeling, and display strategies.
