Not an easy day to cross the Atlantic ✈️ #avgeek #WeatherUpdate

Worried about your upcoming flight? 😰 Our book contains all the psychological and technical information that you need to overcome your fear of flying! Order on Amazon as $14 paperback or $9.5 eBook ✈️😌 https://t.co/gheP3Yc8v6

Expect a bumpy flight if you are taking off anywhere from Chile today! #aviation #turbulence #weatheralert

For a map view of all the current SIGMETs, check 👇 https://t.co/2lMDhn54uU

🌟 New features! Our forecasts now include #SIGMET advisories for turbulence & thunderstorms. SIGMETs are typically valid 2–3 hours after being issued, so they will only be shown for flights near departure. #aviation #fligth #weather

Thank you Marshall Shepherd and @WeatherGeeks for the nice discussion on aviation turbulence!

Nature at its strongest #HurricaneSeason #Erin

Hurricane #Erin has reached Category 5. Fortunately, it's not expected to make landfall but to deflect northwards before reaching the Turks and Caicos or the Bahamas. 👉 https://t.co/TDzrC2zYVz #Hurricane #HurricaneSeason #hurricanetracker

Tropical Storm #Erin, expected to develop into a Hurricane over the next 24 hours and reach Category 3 by Sunday. Track here! 🌪️ https://t.co/L1uB8QzfC6

Thank you @JenCarfagno and @TWCAlexWallace for having me! For the interested readers, here is the link to the book 📚 ✈️: https://t.co/gheP3YbAFy

Full show ahead with updates & analysis on the tropics - #Erin and invest 98L. Join @TWCAlexWallace & me from 10a-2p. We also have an interview with the scientist behind @TurbliForecast He wrote the book "Overcome Your Fear of Flying". #qotd How do you calm nerves when flying?

Great visualization and discussion of Turbli’s turbulence rankings @CNN! ✈️🗺️ #aviation #weather #turbulence #Datavisualization https://t.co/F3VpDFyEnR

After the preliminary report on Air India's 171 flight, the question that remains is: why were the switches flipped? All options seem equally unplausible: accidental flip (not easy on these switches), intentional flip (suicidal pilot), system malfunction. #AirIndiaCrash

Worried about flying near conflict zones? Thanks to careful route planning and constant monitoring, it’s actually safer than you'd think. This article breaks down the risks and how flights stay clear of danger. https://t.co/eEWaQaIKHq #aviation #flightsafety #airtravel

⭐️ New features! Our interactice turbulence map now includes SIGMET advisories with worldwide coverage. SIGMETs are typically issued for turbulence, thunderstorms, icing, and other aviation hazards. 👉 https://t.co/2lMDhn4wFm #AviationSafety #FLIGHT #Weather

China is the world’s manufacturing hub, but can it produce jet engines to rival those made in the West? #aviation #Engineering https://t.co/8bczAcnsMA

An example of the high safety standards in aviation: planes need to carry enough fuel (1) to divert to the most distant alternate airport and then (2) to continue flying for 45 more minutes. Regulated under 14 CFR Part 121.639 https://t.co/gheP3YbAFy #fearofflying #avgeek

Is Clear Air Turbulence (CAT) dangerous? No! CAT is just an umbrella term for any kind of turbulence that "cannot be seen with the naked eye". Even if we cannot see it, most CAT can be predicted well by turbulence forecasts. More of this in our book 📚 https://t.co/gheP3YbAFy

You can know everything about aviation safety and still feel anxious on a plane. Why? Because knowledge alone doesn’t reduce fear — exposure and knowledge do. And for exposure to work, you need to master relaxation techniques. More on this in our book 📚 https://t.co/gheP3Yc8v6

Severe turbulence is rare, but planes are built to handle it — with a 50% safety margin over expected stress loads. This is required by law. In the US: 14 CFR Part 25.303 regulates it. More on this in our book 📚 #fearofflying #aviation https://t.co/gheP3Yc8v6
