Weather lessons
Start with the foundations, then work through weather products and VFR decisions.
Atmosphere & wind
Follow the heat. Understand the wind and the performance penalty.
Stability, clouds & fog
Read the shape of the sky and ask what is happening vertically.
Air masses & fronts
See the boundary. Plan for what changes across it.
Icing, storms & wind shear
Recognize the trap while you still have a way out.
Weather products
Match the question to the product. Then check its time and limits.
Weather to VFR decisions
Keep the route visual, the terrain clear, and a way out available.
Lessons 1–4 build weather understanding for private pilots. Lesson 5 connects the products. Lesson 6 applies private-pilot VFR decision-making. Study examples are not live weather.
