Your piloting skills, that concern themselves with take offs, climbs, slow flight, and landings are pivotal concerns that get combined with your knowledge of aircraft performance and can produce a safer flight!
This evening will review Density Altitude, navigation strategies needed for flight over rugged terrain, and mountain weather features.
Mountain Flying presents challenges that most folks don't normally face. Narrow and Sloping Runways, One-way Airports, Take-Off Strategies, Engine Cooling concerns, Winds, Mountain Wave conditions, Diurnal effect, high Density Altitude flight, Box Canyons, Ridges and Plateaus, and you know it, much, much, more!
Now is the time to catch up on these points!

Note:
Pilot airspace deviations continue to be a major risk in the national airspace system. To reduce the chance that you might be involved in an airspace deviation incident, you are highly encouraged to take an on-line learning center course on www.faasafety.gov. Or search the learning library for associated guidance on airspace incursions. Remember, safe and prudent airmen have superior situational awareness, and have a plan to keep it that way.
Thanks! A message from your local FAASTeam.
