Abstract
The possibility is analyzed to use a nonlinear, stationary, two-dimens ional model for air flow over real mountain systems, for estimation of aircraft flight safety. General regularities of vortex-wave zone orig ination and their scale are studied. Discussed is the choice of criter ia for estimation of the effect of air flow disturbances on the flight . Flow over nine different sample mountain reliefs was calculated to s tudy the dependence of disturbance intensity on the relief shape. The results are illustrated by detailed figures.
