If that's as high as your airplane will go you probably should get
another airplane. At least don't fly around out west where the hills
are higher than that. Sometimes even the ground is higher than that!

I try to avoid the mountains when flying a small plane. There are
some extensive flat areas in the American west, but it is true that
sometimes to get between two points it's hard to avoid the mountains,
short of crossing half the continent to go around them. Even if the
aircraft has the requisite ceiling, carrying oxygen for everyone is
awkward and will not inspire confidence in passengers.


More mindless twaddle from a moron.
