A method and apparatus for recording flight information of aircraft (10, 14), such as position, mass, or type, in order to record the position of a wake turbulence (86) of the aircraft (10, 14). Weather information can be recorded as affecting the wake turbulence (86). Such information can be provided into a model or algorithm to determine a path of a wake turbulence (86). An aircraft (14) on a flight path (84) to encounter the wake turbulence (86) can determine a vortex magnitude of the wake turbulence (86) and determine if an advisory alert needs to be provided if the vortex magnitude satisfies a predetermined threshold.
