My situation is a bit different in that we are taking off from 5500ft airports and flight up to 14000ft is not uncommon. In very hot weather this might give a density altitude thats even higher. I would however NOT advise anybody that this is normal or safe. The human body does adapt to high altitude, and what might be safe for me might not be for you. The bottom line is yes the 320 will fly just fine at these high's and as reported using the wing extensions will even give a 10 Knot speed increase above 10000ft Pine Pienaar pine@cpro.co.za Lancair 360 #664 >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> LML website: http://www.olsusa.com/Users/Mkaye/maillist.html LML Builders' Bookstore: http://www.buildersbooks.com/lancair Please send your photos and drawings to marvkaye@olsusa.com. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
