A Validation Study of the Air Force Weather Agency Jetrax Contrail Forecast Algorithm (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781025119984)

Accurate contrail forecasts allow pilots to avoid levels of the atmosphere which are conducive to contrail formation, reducing their likelihood of being visually detected by enemy forces. The primary objective of this thesis is to evaluate the performance of the JETRAX contrail forecast algorithm currently used by the Air Force Weather Agency to support military air operations.
