IFR in the Eastern Mountains
Jim Macklin wrote:
There are as many dead pilots from hitting steeply rising terrain from Georgia to Maine as die west of Denver. There are also a lot of flat landers who die in Arkansas. It isn't the altitude, it is the suddenness of the mountain and whether the pilot is really thinking about it being a hump, ridge, hill or mountain? TWA 514 comes to mind.
