Weather avoidance/Turbulence avoidance in flight

- Hello everyone and how do you do?
Recently, there has been a lot of talk on turbulent flights due to some incidents. Turbulence has always existed and in most cases was worse in earlier times of aviation with the absence of todays modern weather radar and forecasting advancements. This video talks about the pilot tools and strategies to avoid turbulence and of course to prepare for it. The most difficult type of turbulence is CAT or Clear Air Turbulence which is not detectable with current technology. Pilots have to go by weather forecasts/upper wind charts/geographical location/other aircraft reports and importantly- EXPERIENCE for which there is no substitute.
Take a watch and listen and I hope you gain some insight into what we do.
Hope you like it. Chi Di Gin! Later!✈️✈️✈️✈️
Wow, Its nice to have a Professional 747 Jumbo Jet Pilot to explain all this on youtube 👍👍
Thank you
@@pilot_obet No problem, Captain 🙂
@@pilot_obet No problem, Captain 🙂
I grew up in the 90's and wish I was able to see these videos back then. I didn't know that being a pilot was so cool.
Excellent, Captain. Thanks again.
Captain, how long does the Clear Terbulance last? LaDer
Captain , thank you for the radar explanation. The radar picking up water droplets and painting a picture in the cockpit is fascinating to me. Thanks Later
Great background information! Thanks for that! 👍
Captain Obet I hate turbulence but know it is unavoidable even with the best radar systems. I review PIREPS before each flight. It is also helpful and reassuring during turbulence to hear announcements from the pilot or FO.
how do you review pireps
is there a software or website?
@@alvinlui6626 websites
Idk if there is one for the EU, but you can type in PIREPS and the US gvmt provided interactive map will show up @@alvinlui6626
Super as always!
There is work going on in the scientific community, including at NASA, to develop technology to detect CAT. Let's hope advances are made!
How perfectly explained - straight forward and with relatable examples - thank you.
Excellent information as always sir, thank you for sharing your knowledge.
Well done Captain 👍👍
Thank you captain for this explanation!
God bless the teachers. You’ve opened our eyes
Valuable guide. Thanks skipper. In some of the more advanced weather radar systems used on private jets there is a turbulence mode which helps detect turbulence areas as well as a lightning . Particularly useful at night. Turbulence detection is still more of an art than complete science. Enroute temperature and pressure gradients can also help detect turbulence. Paying attention to how dynamic the Outside Air Temperature gauge can also shed some light as a clue what lies ahead.
Thank you Captain, as usual an interesting and clear lesson, not only on flying but also on aircraft technology...later!
Thank you Captain
Great video pilot 👍
great vid as always informative, with nice human touch to cockpit life, well done!
Thank you Captain! I always look forward to your videos as they are my go to trusted source for information. And with such an important topic, thank you again!
You have no idea how important this video is for me to see! It's great to see the professionalism.
I’m glad I shared some useful information
Good to hear from you Captain!!!
Thank you Captain for making this so interesting and easy to understand. You are truly the best😊
Very informitive ,Thank you Captin for your time and efforts.
Just what I been wondering about!
Thank you for really good and pedagogic information. 👍👍
excellent video captain, very informative, i will use this information for my flight simulation.
have a safe flight captain.
thank you for the invaluable lessons Captain
Thank you Captain! It's very well explained. Keep it up!
Very clear and elegant explanation captain
Wifey & I flew back to LAX from MCO in April. There were severe thunderstorms over Central Texas. The flight was extremely turbulent. I checked the path of our flight on Flightradar24 when we got back to Los Angeles. Our flight took a southerly dip by 150 miles to get around the weather. Several other flights had diverged by a couple of hundred miles to avoid the storms.
Glad you got home safely!😀
brilliant way to explain. i will probably use this info on my next Live Stream. lol
Cool
@@pilot_obetI binge watched your videos yesterday. Brilliant and humble person/senior pilot to come across 🫡
Hi Obet
You should open up a flight school.
Is a different approach to Fasten Seatbelts needed? Default instruction should be to keep fastened at All times whilst seated. The sign should be modified to instruct that passengers Must remain seated.
Thank you for sharing Captain, it is very informative.
nice video
Excellent video Captain Obet!! very timely and topical too
Thank you captain. Am learning.
Great video captain, well explained
Could you make a video about "CLIMB NOW!" alarm?
watching a 747-800 CX cargo taking off whilst again sat in the Pier. 12th June 2024 @ 12.50 local HKG. Was that you??
Smart man!
Thank you
It makes you wonder how did those pilots in the 1930’s 40’s and 50’s fly at night with no wx radar?!
Thanks, Skipper. From my studies, lightning is most intense in the Northern latitudes (Using the okta value). Is the threat of weather, turbulence and CAT highest in the northern latitudes or in the ITCZ?
Hello😅have a question on topic😇
What's maximum wind speed to 747 8f to stay on course and land i mean max value that this plane can stay on straight line? and not go around.
You mean crosswind and tailwind limitations? For most heavy turbine jet transport aircraft, crosswind limitations are in the range of 30-35 knots, while max tailwinds in the range of 10-15 knots as per regulations.
Hello Captain. Thank you for the sharing. May I ask a question regarding weather avoidance. I was wondering is there a big difference in weather avoidance strategy between cargo and passenger flight? Thank you
The strategy is the same…remember that I have self preservation too. Same rules , same precautions
cool later
How often do pilots receive en route meteorological reports? Consider a long-haul, transcontinental flight, conditions may have changed significantly from time of departure.
Real time these days
❤❤👍👍👍🙏
Is weather radar turned on before taxi or when approaching the runway. Doesn't the weather radar emit radiation too?
It does. We turn it on away from buildings on the taxiway or approaching runway
