Summary
143 Max talks about Wind Shear,
which is one of the required topics for which student pilots must
receive ground instruction in order to get a Private certificate.
He talks about what wind shear is, and the accident that led
scientists to research wind shear and how they used radar in their
research. He also talks about where wind shear is found, how to
avoid it, and how to report it.
