Planning a Flight
Every flight needs planning, even a local flight. Apart from checking the plane over and making sure there's enough fuel in it, and adequate reserves, certain other things have to be done:- OBTAINING NOTAMS:- PRODUCING A PLOG:- AIRFIELD INFORMATION:- WEATHER INFORMATION:- The Met Office has a series of briefing pages for aviators, which is helpful for seeing the winds and temps at various levels, as well as the forecast and synopsis. Basic information is free, but enhanced services are available on subscription. You need to log-on with a username and password at Met Office Aviation .
