Rex -----Original Message----- From: barrynorman Sent: Fri, Feb 11, 2011 10:24 pm Subject: Pulsar-List: High altitude flying Here's a question for the group. My wife and I are thinking about flying ou t to Pagosa Springs, Colorado this summer to visit her cousin. The altitude of the airport is 7600 feet with a 8500 foot runway. Has anyone taken off in a Pulsar loaded to gross in these conditions? I know it takes us about 1 500 feet on a 90 degree day to rotate at sea level at gross weight. Bob, I know Big Bear is up there in alititude.
