By Jordan Bullock CFI, FO B737 Most people think that altitude is simply your plane's height above the ground. Pilots know that weather has an intense impact on flying. This includes our altitude! In aviation, altitude isn’t a simple blanket term to be thrown over our height above the ground. What is standard weather?

I have tried to wait out a storm only to watch a bigger and badder one to move in and the overall weather situation getting worse. We should make more pro-active use of our radios to warn other aviators of threatening weather. They are also not limited to summer soaring weather. Are dry microbursts really invisible?

Weather, field conditions, obstacles, and many other elements greatly affect short field operations. Temperature An increase in temperature will increase the density altitude. A high density altitude decreases the performance of the engine and the wing. x V SO (or POH recommendation) by around 500 feet AGL.

He frequently hosted visiting pilots, providing them with detailed briefings of the area and the weather. The CAPE index, a measure of convective energy and instability, was below 100 joules, indicating a very low probability of severe weather or thunderstorms. At this point he still had an altitude of 8,275 ft MSL, i.e. 2,739 ft AGL.

Weather Go-arounds due to weather occur due to wind shear caused by gusting winds or microbursts. In IFR, retract flaps at the appropriate speed above 400ft AGL. Once you have the aircraft climbing out and at a safe altitude, adjust the trim to make the aircraft easier to fly.
