Aviation Met sites listed & UK MET Course:

Hi Tonyhalsall & All,

It could be worse... married 4 years to a wonderful argentine wife... that's 4 years of being told how bad our wx is in the uk regardless... couple that with the current taboo of "the football friendly" and there could be added depression

On a serious note; attended a 2 day course run by the UK Met Office for pilots on Mon/Tue in Exeter; absolutely first class in really giving a major insight into the finer and more subtle points of their TAF's & METAR's weather systems etc. that you just don't pick up from the JAA PPL text books. Glad I went and would highly recommend it - although not cheap.

www.navex.aero now has had its list of web domain links for Met info updated and includes sites recommended by the forecasters at the UK Met office. It serves as a strictly non commercial site and 1 Stop Portal with an obvious address to remember.


Kind regards & hope the wx improves and we win the footy!

EG
