We are proud to have been able to support the DittingerFlugtage with timely and accurate weather briefings and information.
This year's event faced particularly unstable weather, with the potential for significant changes within short periods. As detailed in last week's comprehensive weather news, the conditions demanded careful monitoring. A weather briefing with a precise forecast from meteoblue delivered several days in advance was crucial for the organising team to plan the air show effectively. Additionally, real-time nowcasting and on-site weather updates provided by the meteoblue team at Dittinger Airfield played a vital role in ensuring the event proceeded smoothly with minimal disruptions.
Knowing the weather is crucial for safe and successful flights. We want pilots to have the best data at their fingertips. Whether the skies are clear or conditions are challenging, we can help you plan your flight: Our point+ subscription provides access to all required information to plan incredible flights, such as:
- Weather maps, in particular, the radar and satellite maps, to understand the current precipitation and cloud situation and to look into the upcoming hours.
- 500 hPa Height map is used to get an overview of the general synoptical situation. What’s the prevailing wind direction in the atmosphere? Is there high pressure/low pressure?
- METAR map to access the latest airport observations and information about flight conditions.
- Cloud altitude maps to understand the altitude of the cloud base.
- Meteogram Air is used to observe weather conditions at various altitudes.
We look back on a fantastic event with many visitors, an incredible atmosphere, and spectacular air shows! Thanks for the impressive air shows presented by PatrouilleSuisse, RedBull Blanix, RolandBrunnbauer and all the other participants who made the Dittinger Flugtage an incredible experience.
