摘要：	This research has two main phases. Phase 1 investigated three major questions: 1) Do video weather training products significantly affect general aviation (GA) pilot weather knowledge and flight behavior in marginal meteorological conditions? 2) How are modern Web-based weather products used during GA preflight briefing? 3) Do local Oklahoma GA pilots differ appreciably from other pilots in either weather knowledge or weather-related flight behavior? Fifty GA pilots took a general weather knowledge pre-test, followed by exposure to either one of two weather training videos (the Experimental groups) or to a video having nothing to do with weather (the Control group). They next took a post-test to measure knowledge gain induced by the training product. Finally, they planned for, and flew, a simulated flight mission through marginal weather from Amarillo, TX, to Albuquerque, NM. Question 1: Few highly significant, direct effects were found for the two 90-minute video weather training products all by themselves. Follow-up multivariate modeling implied that a combination of higher pilot age, receiving either weather training product, and takeoff hesitancy could significantly, correctly predict 86.7%of diversions from deteriorating weather and 77.8%of full flight completions. However, we must conservatively conclude that weather knowledge and GA weather flying behavior are complex and unlikely to be profoundly changed by a single, brief training product. Phase 2 will address this issue. Question 2: The data-collecting emulation of www.aviationweather.gov suggested that mere time spent on preflight briefing was not a good predictor of either quality of preflight briefing or subsequent flight safety. Nonetheless, these data are just an opening look at what should eventually be a far more intensive study of modern weather briefing and its relation to flight safe.
