Dennis Newton's Severe Weather Flying has been an important resource to pilots for more than 30 years. This new Fourth Edition is updated with advice on current weather prediction models and technology, along with instruction on how all pilots can use these to their advantage. 

Newton offers rational guidance that is built upon a lifetime of experience and expertise, with detailed descriptions of the types of weather hazardous to flight. He also examines the capabilities and limitations of airplanes and equipment in weather encounters, the coverage of which has been brought up to the latest standards of research and FAA regulations. As the subtitle explains--- "Increase your knowledge and skill in avoidance of thunderstorms, icing, and severe weather"--- this book is not about flying in severe weather but how to use the resources to avoid it.

Meteorology can be a tough "language" to crack, but Newton translates the most crucial principles pilots can use to fly more wisely in weather. Severe Weather Flying is as valuable for seasoned veterans as for relative newcomers, and applicable to VFR, IFR, piston, turbine, low- and high-altitude operations.
