This guide to weather for pilots uses actual colour photographs of clouds and landscapes rather than line drawings and tables of statistics to explain what is happening in the atmosphere.

This book breaks new ground in the presentation of what is and should be presented as a fascinating and vitally important part of a pilot's skill. Gone are the dreary old monotone drawings of isobars and fronts, endless graphs and reams of figures and in bounce full color photos of what you actually see - clouds and cloudscapes that tell you instantly what's happening to the air around you. For those who fly aircraft and micros, gliders or kites - this book makes the weather make sense.
