Proceedings of the Annual Workshop on Meteorological and Environmental Inputs to Aviation Systems (3rd) Held April 3-5, 1979, University of Tennessee Space Institute.
Abstract
This workshop was jointly sponsored by NASA, NOAA, and FAA and brought together many disciplines of the aviation communities. The major objectives are to satisfy such needs of the sponsoring agencies as the expansion of our understanding and knowledge of the interaction of the atmosphere with aviation systems, the better definition and implementation of services to operators, and the collection and interpretation of data for establishing operational criteria, relating the total meteorological inputs from the atmospheric sciences to the needs of aviation communities. Full-length papers from invited speakers addressed the topics of Training, Flight Operations, Accident Investigation, Air Traffic Control, and Airports and are contained in the proceedings. Other committees examined: Winds and Wind Shear; Icing and Frost; Atmospheric Electricity and Lightning; Fog, Visibility and ceilings; and Turbulence. Committee chairmen's reports on the results and conclusions of the committee meetings are given.
