You can expect LARGE updrafts and downdrafts.
It is important to know where they may occur in relation to the

Like I said, if you actually fly in it a couple times, it becomes a

Is there an altitude above the ridge line at which the "mountain wave"
effect isn't significant?
Not for your plane. Airlines will reroute around these areas to avoid
mountain wave.
