Mastering PPL: Meteorology

Read the sky before you fly.

Mastering PPL: Meteorology teaches the whole subject from first principles, in plain language, for the aeroplane PPL(A): the atmosphere, pressure and wind, water in the air, cloud and fog, fronts, thunderstorms and icing, and the reports and charts that describe the weather.

The book covers the full published PPL(A) theoretical knowledge syllabus for Meteorology, with short boxes wherever UK and European practice differ. Each chapter ends with key points and original practice questions with explained answers, and a full mock paper closes the book.

All practice questions were written for this book. The book is not a question bank, does not predict any examination and is not a course of training: follow your flying school's instruction and your aircraft's flight manual.

Capt. Matthew Dowell is an airline training captain, examiner and Chief Flight Instructor. This is a personal work, not issued by or on behalf of any employer, regulator or other body. Book 3 of the Mastering PPL series.
