For those of you who have 360s, have you flown at high altitudes?  How often?  What special equipment do you have on your planes to handle thin air, cooler temperatures, etc.?  How much oxygen capacity?  What flow rates?  Is it worthwhile to even go to those high altitudes?  What advantages have you actually realized (besides bragging rights)? 
 
I have an extended wing, low compression, LNC2 with 3-blade composite prop and room for oxygen.  Don't use plane for business but often fly long cross-country legs to visit family and friends. Maybe high altitudes are not for me but I can think of several nights I've spent in hotels 'cause I couldn't go higher to avoid icing, wx and winds.    Greg Nelson
