Title: DENVER AND THE MILE HI CLUB
Post by: fireflyr on December 31, 2006, 07:09:48 AM
EGADS! ::silly:: It just occurred to me that well over 90% of Denver residents belong to the mile high club |:)\---I'm not sure how I feel about that but it is ::thinking:: thought provoking. OOPS- gotta go, I hear the nurse coming with my medications ::drinking::

Hmmm, let me guess, it's because Denver is over 1 mile over sealevel? I almost thought this was more spam until I saw it was you who posted it.

HA HA! I thought it was spam too!! how funny....
and yes, I am pretty sure mile-high is measured in MSL . . . I think this subject must be discussed in more detail !! ::thinking::
Actually Mike, I think we touched on some of those stories a while back so I'll just say there are almost too many distractions, an autopilot preferred, and I've always used MSL as a reference ::whistle::

there are grounded aircraft in Denver, so even that argument doesn't hold a great deal of water. Hell, a friend's dad owned a Cessna 310, sat in a hanger at Centennial Airport. Hmmm...

Not if it needs to be AGL!
Listen, if a couple can manage the deed on Denvers runway today, I'll personally fly out and give them the Mile High certificate while they warm up their little tooshies ::bow::

So if it's MSL then a tent on McKinley would get you in the 4 mile high club? Might be kind of akward with the oxegen bottles and -20 temps though. ::knockedout::
And does that put Laramie Wyoming residents in the mile and a half club? ::cowboy::
