NOTE: Author is NOT AN INSTRUCTOR!         Angel Fire Airport (KAXX) has experienced several accidents over the past several years because of a variety of factors such as high density altitude, inability of aircraft to outclimb rising terrain, extreme winds / crosswinds, snowdrifts catching a wing, etc. This video is intended to give pilots considering flying to Angel Fire some insights into the things local pilots think about when planning our arrival, departure, and our go / no-go decisions. This should not be used in lieu of competent instruction, and the best way to safely fly in-and-out of this dangerous airport is with a qualified and current CFI with Mountain Flying experience. This is a local private pilot's thoughts on the topic ONLY!   

While this video was created from a compilation of information from a variety of sources, it is not a recognized or accredited source of aviation training information, and thus should be considered entertainment. Please consult a FAA-certificated flight instructor prior to putting any information found here into practice.
