Did you know that the crisp white and vibrant red stripes on a windsock are not just for adding a pop of color to airport terminals, helipads, or high-rise buildings? They actually indicate precise wind speeds, serving as a vital visual aid for pilots, meteorologists, and engineers to gauge air currents and navigate safely. Here's how the carefully calibrated stripes provide essential information in the blink of an eye.

💡 Aviation Word of The Day - PIREP: 🔹Stands for 'Pilot Report' 🔹A PIREP is a weather report made by pilots to Air Traffic Control (ATC) 🔹Includes information on weather, turbulence, icing, and other relevant data 🔹Pilots submit this information voluntarily and can be requested by air traffic controllers or meteorologists 🔹PIREPs are crucial for air traffic control, meteorologists, and other pilots to assess current conditions

Michigan Department of Transportation has awarded ADB SAFEGATE's DBT Transportation Services a US$3.7 million contract to replace the 42 Non-Federal Automated Weather Observing Systems (AWOS). The F1 Standalone AWOS (F1 STA) is the latest generation of Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) certified AWOS from ADB Safegate. It uses future-forward technology, with configurations covering every type from AWOS A through AWOS IV Z including the AWOS III P/T type currently being installed in Michigan.

Terminal Doppler Weather Radar (TDWR) Category: Controlled Flight Into Terrains A Terminal Doppler Weather Radar (TDWR) system detects and reports hazardous weather in and around airport terminal approach and departure zones. The TDWR identifies and warns air traffic controllers (ATCs) of low altitude wind shear hazards caused by microbursts and gust fronts, in addition to reporting on precipitation intensities and providing advanced warning of wind shifts. TDWR antennas are located near but not on a primary airport site. The radar is specially designed to operate in a high clutter environment normally present in the vicinity of airports. It makes use of a variety of methods to minimize clutter and to eliminate the influence of such moving targets as birds, aircraft and automobiles. In this way the TDWR can accurately measure the radial wind speed and its fluctuation from which low level windshear can be computed. The ATCs use the TDWR reports to warn pilots who are potentially affected by the hazardous weather patterns. TDWR was first used operationally in the USA in the 1990s where it has gradually replaced anememometer-based low-level wind shear alert systems in USA. TDWR is also being installed in other countries outside USA where wind shear and microbursts are a particular hazard.

#Windsocks !! typically are used at airports to indicate the direction and strength of the wind to pilots and at chemical plants where there is risk of gaseous leakage. They are sometimes located alongside highways at windy locations. At many airports, windsocks are lit at night, either by floodlights on top surrounding it or with one mounted on the pole shining inside it. Wind direction is the direction in which the windsock is pointing.

27 May 2024 Hi dear PM Wong, The SIA crew’s crisis management performance is impressive, on the other hand, the incident shows that there’re always a need to improve the safety and security of air travel in the airline industry. For instance, instruments (AI optimised) that could provide advanced meteorological forecasts/ data, on weather changes, such as invisible air turbulences, and that could activate “early warnings”signals to alert air passengers will do much to prevent injuries; will enable the pilot to make even higher quality decisions, imho. == … instantly activate “put on safety belt” signal/ siren, during clear sky days, that makes air turbulences so invisible to the naked eyes, imho.

"to soar" is the #act or #process of #soaring or #sport of #flying a craft that: a) outweighs air ~ b) with power ~ c) by utilizing air and air currents. O, in future it might be necessary to share that with everyone upfront when even your name indicates Soaring :). #data #Investments 🌊🌐
