Some of the material feels outdated. Perhaps FAA regulations were updated? Or maybe aviation statistics have changed.

The impacts of weather are usually not realized by the general public. We are usually just the source of negative feedback when we complain about how the weather affected our travel plans. This module helped me to realize there is another side to the story. The travel industry (land, sea and air) all depend on forecasts as a means of planning. Lives depend on forecasts for fog and low stratus. Just as any pilot, train engineer, trucker or sea captain should be required to check the forecast between point of origin and destination, so should each citizen check the forecast prior to departing on a trip. Forecasting can save lives and money.

• Increase awareness of the various users of ceilings and visibility forecasts and how forecasts of these conditions impact (both positively and negatively) aviation operations within each user group     o Improve forecaster understanding of the impacts of reduced visibility and ceilings on commercial and general aviation operations     o Improve forecaster understanding of the impact to aviation operations from forecasts (TAFs) of reduced ceiling and visibility due to fog and low stratus     o Provide recommendations on how and when to amend TAFs to best reflect current and forecast conditions • Increase awareness of the need to be knowledgeable about supported airport configurations • Increase knowledge of critical thresholds and their variations from one airport to another and one user group to another
