A shower cell is moving toward the site. The aircraft could finish the last five minutes of work before the forecast arrival time. What should decide whether to continue?

Answer

Use the observed cell movement, wind trend, recovery time, battery reserve, and pre agreed weather trigger. If the margin is narrowing, recover before the predicted arrival rather than racing it.

Explanation

Forecast timing has uncertainty. A safe weather trigger includes the time needed to land before conditions arrive.
