Navigating the Skies: Weather Impacts, Limited Data Forecasting, and Safety in Manned & Unmanned Aerial Systems for Search & Rescue Operations
Instructor: SSGT Phillip Turney, USAF
How do weather impacts affect both manned and unmanned aerial systems, particularly in search and rescue scenarios? This class is perfect for aviation professionals, emergency responders, and anyone interested in combining weather forecasting and aerial navigation for public safety to answer that question.
In this webinar, we'll discuss how weather elements can impact the performance of aircraft and drones, how you can make accurate weather predictions with limited data in remote or difficult terrain, best weather training tools, suggested sources of weather data, and some real life examples of how weather has both aided and hampered search and rescue operations.
