Three days prior to the race start, our strategic weather forecast package will begin a progressive focus on tactic planning based upon the forecast weather tendency. A detailed, large-scale weather synopsis will lead into a route-specific discussion of wind direction transitions and speed forecasts along the race route. An emphasis on favored routing tactics to take advantage of forecast shifts in weather parameters, is the key discussion that will tie together all weather factors and enable a strategic scope to be enhanced with each daily update leading to the race start.

Seven days prior to launch, an initial forecast flight trajectory is provided, to include a discussion of the large-scale weather pattern continuity and forecast trend. From 4 days ahead of the race start, detailed daily updates focus upon launch strategy, efficient trajectory flight levels and optimal landing weather. Progressive updates provided throughout flight duration.

Forecast package starts 2 days ahead of the race start, providing strategic insight of forecast flight-level tailwinds and weather pattern progression through the race duration.
