Every pilot needs a thorough preflight weather briefing. That much is clear. What isn't clear to many pilots is exactly what the flight service station specialist is saying during those briefings.

Jerry Miller's new book, Preflight Weather Analysis Made Easy, was written to make the preflight briefing easy to understand so the pilot may get the most benefit from the interaction.

Miller is a retired flight service specialist who breaks down the briefing and goes step by step through every chart a briefer has access to.

Every page starts with a chart example and then explains what can be gleaned from the information it presents.

The explanation is clear, plain, and to the point.

Miller also includes a tip sidebar on each chart, and some nice memory aids along the way.

The book also includes a section of tips on getting the most of every briefing.

Finally, a number of appendices cover everything from NOTAM and METAR/TAF contractions to weather chart symbols and TAF reporting locations. There's even a sample briefing sheet.

If the FAA's Aviation Weather Services is too obscure, try Miller's book for some real world insight.

When using this manual, you will:

• Take command of your weather check, confidently understanding the total weather picture.

• Analyze the weather faster, more easily, and more efficiently than you ever have before.

• Increase your weather comprehension, and begin thinking like a true weather analyst.

• Never again miss a piece of critical weather data, avoiding potential unwelcome surprises.

Written in plain, everyday language.

No hard to understand meteorological jargon.

No obscure, difficult to comprehend weather theory.

Includes:

• Over 250 decoded METAR and TAF contractions to expand your weather vocabulary.

• Over 400 NOTAM contractions -- 140 more than the official FAA NOTAMs manual.

• An in-depth discussion of Doppler weather radar to help you correctly interpret radar imagery.

• Simple explanations of the weather charts -- plus weather chart symbol interpreters.

• Detailed explanations of critical aviation weather hazard advisories, reports, and forecasts.

• Maps and decoders to help you determine the "where" of hazardous weather advisories.

• Aviation weather web site addresses you can explore to discover what works best for YOU!

This book will be your constant reference guide for every preflight weather analysis you make. You will use this manual again and again for gaining that all-important insight into the most critical and complex variable which affects every one of your flights - the weather.
