FAA Issues New Weather Text

December 22nd Publication of "Aviation Weather Handbook" Goes Nearly Unnoticed in Holiday Rush

A new textbook from the 8083 series of FAA publications dropped earlier this month, the Aviation Weather Handbook.

FAA-H-8083-28 combines a number of Advisory Circulars frequently cited by CFI's and PPL's alike in their checkride prep, conveniently bound into one single volume for easy reference and a more cohesive narrative. The Handbook includes:

AC 00-6, Aviation Weather

AC 00-24, Thunderstorms

AC 00-30, Clear Air Turbulence Avoidance

AC 00-45, Aviation Weather Services

AC 00-54, Pilot Windshear Guide

AC 00-57, Hazardous Mountain Winds

In one simple publication, free when downloaded from the FAA's website, pilots can obtain a high-quality teaching and learning resource regarding weather formation and its attendant risks. The book joins a fairly comprehensive library of other essential aviation publications, both as an electronic PDF and a printed piece from all the usual sellers. Covering everything from the fundamentals of atmospheric development, winds, visibility, icing, arctic, and even space weather, pilots will have an easier go of weather studies than ever before. 

The Advisory Circulars above will remain in effect for a time, but will eventually be canceled, likely once the Handbook reaches some as-yet undetermined marketplace saturation.
