Aviation Weather: Who Generates It & What Tools Are Available to Pilots?

Date: Nobember 9, 2024

Time: 10:00 a.m. - 11:30 a.m.

Location : Blue Ridge Airport (MTV)

Details:   Link to Flyer

Who makes the TAFs & Prog Charts? Where are these people located? Do they really understand our local weather? How do they do it? What weather tools are available to pilots on-line, and how do we interpret these new charts?


To help us understand all of this, we will have a pilot seminar at the Blue Ridge airport, MTV, on Saturday, November 9th.


Vance Joyner, Aviation Program Leader with the National Weather Service Forecast Office in Blacksburg, VA, will answer these questions and walk us through the process used to create aviation weather forecasts and the on-line tools available to pilots.


You can receive Wings credit for this seminar, and attendance does qualify as a safety seminar for the Virginia Ambassadors Program.


Lunch will be available in the restaurant beginning at 11:30.
