From Oklahoma at 700ft. and went to the Love Air Fest in Greeley a few years back with a Carden Edge. It's like strapping 30 lbs. to the tail of the plane. I had a dead stick during the event due to my engine being too rich. Get a light plane and Leeeeeaaaaannnnn the engine. One of the United pilots that day said the density Altitude was around 9,000 feet. Garrett Morrison made it look simple that day with his 39% AW Extra. there was one other Carden there....a Cap with a bunch of lightning holes.
