WMO used to publish technical manuals on these
sorts of things - they might be available for lending by the national
Met. authority in Poland perhaps?


.... have now had time to look on the WMO site:...

http://www.wmo.ch/index-en.html

This is the publication I was thinking of .....
495 - Handbook of meteorological forecasting for soaring flight
Second edition
1993; xi + 85 pp.
E
ISBN: 92-63-12495-0
Price: SFR 24.-
As you can see, it is available for purchase ... see the web site for
details of how to order and languages available. But, I would hope that
(as in this country), IMGW might have some sort of lending capacity for
specialist publications.

Incidentally, (and this is for the benefit of those within UK), you can
search for such, and many others, by using the National Meteorological
Library and Archive 'Search' facility at:-

http://www.metoffice.com/corporate/library/index.html

I'll add this to the FAQ at next update:... a very useful facility.

Martin.
