Downbursts and Aviation

Image
Earlier this week, I was sent an image via LinkIn from a pilot who took this photo while in flight.  I wanted to point out aspects of the extreme hazard of a downburst. In the foreground is a downburst in progress on the ground. There are also two downbursts descending from the cloud base.  You can see a downburst curl in this excerpt from a PBS documentary.  This photo shows descending downbursts. For flight safety, it is important for pilots to be able to visually identify these signs of extreme danger. 

Please Take a Look at My Gallery

I hope you will take a few minutes to browse my galley at Adobe Stock Photography .  There are about 250 curated images I believe you will enjoy. I also want to thank all of the people and/or enterprises who have licensed by stock photography the past few weeks.
