Normally, the weather service would be available to the aircrew before a flight. But there are limitations to this service due to ever changing conditions even during peacetime, not to mention wartime. This manual was used to instruct trainee members of an aircrew on how to interpret changing weather conditions so that they were prepared on how to respond to these variants and in the end avoid a future aircraft accident.

This handbook familiarizes the aircrew member with fundamentals of weather. It serves as a text for flight training programs, all USAF instrument refresher training, flight instruction programs, and various unit and individual flying training programs. It is issued to each instructor and student involved in undergraduate flight training programs as well as to each flying unit. This handbook, when used with related flight directives and publications, provides weather guidance for visual and instrument flight under most circumstances. It is not a substitute for sound judgment.Chapter 1 * THE EARTH'S ATMOSPHERE * 1.1. Introduction * 1.2. Composition of the Atmosphere * 1.3. The Troposphere * 1.4.

Twenty true stories of covert military operations, from raids into Laos by elite unit MAC-V-SOG to cut the Ho Chi Minh trail during the Vietnam War to the US Navy SEAL 6 operation Neptune's Spear in Abbottabad which resulted in the death of Osama bin Laden. Lewis shines a light on the 'shadow war' units that conduct clandestine operations and tells in full and fascinating detail the most daring missions of the last fifty years, from the the Sayeret Mat'Kal/Mossad 'Wrath of God' mission to assassinate those behind the Munich Olympic massacre of Olympic athletes to the Delta Force mission in Somalia using Black Hawk helicopters which went so tragically wrong.
