Which condition makes aircraft flight relatively safer in the stratosphere?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Less storm activity and stable air
The governing concept is the vertical distribution of weather in the atmosphere. Most clouds, rainfall, thunderstorms, and strong turbulence occur in the troposphere, whereas the stratosphere has comparatively stable, layered air and much less storm activity. Therefore option A correctly explains why aircraft may experience smoother and safer conditions there. Options B and D describe tropospheric weather, while option C would make flight less safe.
