From the Back Cover
This well regarded series for students taking the commerical and airline transport pilot licences has been substantially revised to bring it into line with the new European Joint Aviation Requirements (JARs) for flight crew licensing. Each volume deals with the material required by one of the new JAR papers.
This volume covers meteorology and has been written to cover the changes in the syllabus by the Joint Aviation Authority. Many test questions and answers have been included, based on the JAR syllabus
