REFLECTOR: What's the highest altitude airport you've flown into?

[jeff findarle]

How much runway would you say you ate up on that takeoff and was it in the morning, or do you remember the density altitude?

>Laramie Regional, (LAR), 7284 msl.  I've got 
about 190 horsepower with a fixed pitch cruise prop.  We were close to max 
gross with my wife and luggage and fuel.  The runway is 8500 feet.  
All I remember is that it took awhile to get off the ground and I wasn't 
climbing very fast once we did get off the ground.

>>I'm heading  back out west next week in  my STD-RG, with it's normally aspirated 200 HP lycoming.  One of the  places we'll be visiting is Pagosa Springs, Colorado (elevation 7664 feet -  yeow!).  
>>
>>I've been into Santa  Fe a few times (elevation 6348 feet) with  no significant scary  departures, but, wow... 7600+ seems mighty high to this  flatlander....
>>
>>So, what's the  highest elevation airport you've been into?  Please include your aircraft  & engine for comparisons....

>>Thanks!
