Topic:
Mountain Flying: Are You Ready for a Challenge?
Speaker(s):
Dennis Miller 'Gold Seal ' CFI 2018 FAASTeam Rep. of the Year
Brief Description:
Flying in mountainous areas is challenging, not only because operational altitudes and winds are higher, but also because weather reporting and off airport landing opportunities are fewer than in other flight environments. This seminar, prepared by the Colorado Pilots' Association, acquaints pilots with the challenges of mountain flying and offers suggestions for training and additional information. It is informational only and in no way prepares inexperienced pilots for flying in mountainous environments.
