Safety Hot Spot: Summer weather

Summer is here and, like it or not, so are the associated weather challenges.

High density altitude, haze, and thunderstorms can put a damper on any flight. Learn how to deal with those three summer weather hazards and more in the AOPA Air Safety Foundation's Summer Weather Safety Hot Spot.

Each Safety Hot Spot focuses on a timely issue or trend within the general aviation community and offers a host of resources including free interactive online courses, AOPA and Air Safety Foundation publications, a Safety Checkup written by ASF staff pilots, Sporty's Safety Quizzes, pertinent accident reports, and links to related Web sites.
