WEATHER LIMITATIONS
Although the EVOLVE 2 is a high-performance aircraft, weather can be a crucial factor to ight performance and safe
operations. Caution must be taken when it comes to weather planning. Effective weather planning breaks includes the
following criteria:
• Weather information gathering – This can be achieved by watching local news weather stations, the internet and apps
such as The Weather Channel and NOAA.
• Knowledge of weather patterns in your operational area – Search for local weather patterns with weather forecasting
apps.
• Executing ight plan and go or no-go situations based on the weather information – Be sure to make informed decisions
based on accurate weather information and remember no ight is too important to ignore hazards created by inclement
weather.
If these criteria are met, the chances of a crash or close call are substantially reduced.
