A METAR is a format of weather reporting information and is used by pilots to fulfill part of their pre flight weather briefing. It is also used by meteorologists who use aggregated METAR information to assist in weather forecasting.

What kind of satellites do sailors and pilots use to determine their exact location?
Global Positioning Satellites. Russia is trying to deploy a similar system called GLONASS.
You are planning a flight from Miami to norfolk virgina will be flying direct gps at 10500 and will be going through the contiguous us adiz do you have to file a dvfr or ifr flight plan?
If you are flying directly from Miami to Norfolk, and you are planning to fly at 10,500 feet, you would typically file an IFR (Instrument Flight Rules) flight plan. This is because flying at that altitude would require you to adhere to air traffic control instructions and use onboard instruments for navigation. A DVFR (Defense Visual Flight Rules) flight plan would not be necessary in this scenario.
Do you have to empty the boric acid from a urine sample bottle before you use it?
no
How does the roundworm ascaris cause malnutrition?
It gets to use your food before you do.
How often should backfire flame arrestors be inspected?
before use
Do pilots use fractions?
Yes they use them on every flight -awesome dude
Can you listen to your Sirius Stiletto radio during flight?
No... pilots will not allow the use of any unessecary electronic devices during flight as it will interfere with the flight instruments
How do you spell flightdeck?
Flight deck is a section in some airplanes that pilots, copilots and engineers use.
What do pilots use to orient themselves in flight?
To orient themselves in flight, pilots either: 1. Use visual cues outside the cockpit to keep the airplane stable and on track or 2. (more used) use instruments inside the cockpit that act as visual cues (attitude indicator, speed indicator, altimeter, and GPS)
Why do airline pilots use great-circle routes to plot airline flight paths?
Airline pilots use great circle routes to a plot airline flight paths because they are often the shortest distance between take off and destination. Great circle routes take into account the curvature of the Earth.

How does temperature affect an air traffic controllers operations?
The barometric pressure is what pilots use to gauge their altitude, however, all pilots above flight level 180 use 29.92. Barometric pressure is related to temperature changes, especially in higher altitude and mountainous areas.
What does the use of kamikaze pilots show about Japanese culture?
The use of Kamikaze pilots reinforces the traditional Japanese values of honor and duty above life. It reflects the Bushido code employed by the Samurai from long before.
Does real pilots fly ms flight simulator or they think that it is a joke?
I know several real pilots who use MS flight sim. It's a good way of learning instrument procedures. It's got three advantages over a real plane--it's cheaper by many orders of magnitude both to buy and to operate, you can use it any time you want, and it's really hard to get killed in it.
What kinds of equipment do pilots use?
Pilots use mostly electronic equipment. If electronics go out they use instruments.
How do use the word dew point in a sentence?
Knowing what the dew point is, before takeoff, is very important to pilots.
What instruments do pilots use?
Pilots will reference many instruments throughout their flight. Attitude indicators, speed, altimeters, vertical speed indicators, turn indicators, navigation displays, flight management systems and many engine instruments that display temperature, rpm, various pressures such as oil, manifold and hydraulic. The most important instrument is probably their fuel gauge.
