Abstract
This paper discusses the feasibility of building a flying school near Denver, and the conditions for flying which are present in the region due to its proximity to Tornado Alley and the mountains.

From the Paper
"Denver, Colorado lies on the edge of an area known as Tornado Alley which is the area where the most intense killer tornadoes are likely to occur. This is an area where F and F tornadoes have struck multiple times in the past. Some people consider Tornado Alley just the area where tornadoes have struck most frequently where multiple tornado touchdowns have occurred year after year. However in a super tornado outbreak took place in Georgia, Illinois; Indiana, Kentucky; Michigan, Mississippi; North, Carolina; Ohio, South Carolina and Tennessee ..."

Abstract
This paper examines the many weather conditions that can precipitate an aircraft accident, such as windshear, thunderstorms, haze and more. Each of these conditions is explained in detail.

From the Paper
"Weather conditions influence the incidence of aircraft accidents in a number of ways. Aircraft can become directly impacted by weather when they are struck by lightning in storms blown off course, incur malfunctions due to the icing up of engine parts and wings or are bounced about in the air by turbulence. Wind shear and convective hazards can draw a plane off course where it can collide with another aircraft. Hailstorms can damage an aircraft's shell, thus altering its aerodynamic properties..."
