Hey, you mountain types out there :-) I'm doing some research on a safety
issue and need your help . I need a post from someone flying out of Colorado somewhere, preferably Telluride or a field very close to Telluride. I need as close to the highest elevation in the U.S. as I can get. I'm not dealing with this issue in the context of right or wrong as it pertains to mountain flying. I need to know if the Kollsman window in your altimeters has a wide enough range to allow you, IF YOU DESIRED TO DO SO, to set your altimeters to 0 elevation on a consistent basis before take off at your field instead of a MSL setting. Again, I'm only interested in the possibility, not the right and wrongs involved with doing this. Thanks, Dudley Henriques International Fighter Pilots Fellowship Commercial Pilot/ CFI Retired For personal email, please replace the z's with e's. dhenriquesATzarthlinkDOTnzt |
