The Scientific journal AEROjournal is published by The Air Transport Department at the University of Zilina. It offers aviation professionals and academics an opportunity for publication of their research outcomes covering wide range of current issues in air transportation. The Air Transport Department at the University of Zilina (ATD) is a centre for education, research, and training in civil aviation. ATD provides accredited study programmes in a three - tier course structure of university education - bachelor, Ing (equivalent to MSc.) and PhD degrees. We also provide complex aircraft pilot training up to the CPL/IR/MEP (A) level (Commercial Pilot with twin-engine aeroplane qualification and qualification for flying in accordance with Instrument Flight Rules) and a theory up to the frozen ATPL (Airline Transport Pilot) level including Multi Crew Cooperation course. ATD is also the base of the National Civil Aviation Security Training Centre of the Slovak Republic. The Centre runs basic aviation security courses in line with the EU regulations for all categories of personnel in aviation. The papers in this journal cover all the aspects of aviation (including airlines, airports, air traffic management, aerospace and maintenance).

    (University of Žilina, 2024) Golais, Jakub; Jarošová, Miriam
    The aim of the paper is to explain the role of clouds and cloud cover in aviation as it is important to know their base, shape and amount. Consequently, teaching the user to understand the association of clouds with hazardous phenomena and familiarizing them with aeronautical meteorological information will help them avoid such phenomena. The first part of this paper discusses the formation of clouds themselves and describes the factors that contribute to their formation. The following section not only introduces the user to the history of cloud tracking and compares it to its current state, but also provides options on where to look for information on the amount of clouds in the sky. The third section writes about the distribution and coverage of clouds, and follows on from the fourth section, which takes a closer look at the hazardous phenomena associated with some of the clouds. In the last section, the paper presents the current state of weather gauges and the location of airports, which clearly show the differences in equipment and the associated different readings of weather conditions.
