Weather
As pilots we have learned to pay close attention to the weather. Several ways to determine if the weather is flyable are as follows, go outside and feel the air, look at the clouds and take note if they are building or losing stength. If those indicators are good, then look at the wind forcast for your area. If the wind is below 6 mph and 8 mph gusts, the wind is managable. I’d prefer wind speeds to be well under 6 mph and 8 mph gusts. The wind forcast app below will indicate the current and predicted conditions for the selected area. Use the app below to navigate to your area and check if winds are flyable.
