This
book is not about flying in severe weather, but about how to detect and
therefore avoid it, with advice on how to escape it if you become
caught in it accidentally.
Author Dennis Newton is a meteorologist, weather research pilot,
engineering test pilot, ATP, and flight instructor. He speaks pilot to
pilot in this valuable guide on how not to fly severe weather. He
believes that given the knowledge, pilots can truly lessen their chances
of being caught in thunderstorms and other extreme weather conditions.
This book was written with that goal in mind: to impart enough
meteorological information in a way pilots can best grasp and use it.
While the emphasis is on types of weather that are potentially
hazardous to flight, it is not a “cry-wolf” approach
