These recommendations are aimed at improving FAA's efforts to prepare general aviation pilots for the greater risks of flying in mountainous areas.

Identifies the extent to which mountainous areas present higher risks than non-mountainous areas for general aviation, and actions that FAA is taking and should take to reduce the risks associated with mountain flying and the impact of those actions on general aviation.
