A method and apparatus for recording flight information of aircraft, such as position, mass, or type, in order to record the position of a wake turbulence of the aircraft. Weather information can be recorded as affecting the wake turbulence. Such information can be provided into a model or algorithm to determine a path of a wake turbulence. An aircraft on a flight path to encounter the wake turbulence can determine a vortex magnitude of the wake turbulence and determine if an advisory alert needs to be provided if the vortex magnitude satisfies a predetermined threshold.
