![]() "Peter" wrote in message ... (Dane Spearing) wrote Now, our Cherokee 6 can't climb up to FL 350, so I have no personal experience with how high the standard lapse rate holds. However, my son will tell you that for a clear day, above 2000' AGL, it seems to hold very very well. He got lucky. I can't remember a flight here (UK) where the lapse rate was anything like 2C/1000ft. Yesterday, +10C on the ground, +8C at 5000ft. That might have been because there was an inversion from the ground up to say 2000 ft, a higher temperature that ground level. |

Why dies everyone think that the standard lapse rate is a
meteorological term? It's not. On Fri, 26 Oct 2007 17:59:15 +0100, "S Green" wrote: "Peter" wrote in message .. .
