I’m not Lindbergh… This trip was ambitious for me, but quite common in the general aviation community. Small aircraft are designed for these kinds of flights. I spent a few months researching aircraft performance and high altitude airport flying techniques.

Key Takeaways The E6B is a mechanical slide rule that helps pilots make calculations useful for flight planning Use the slide rule side to calculate time, speed, fuel, and air density calculations. You can also use it for unit conversions, estimating wind correction angles, and figuring out density altitude.

The front side of the chart shows the corridors and procedures for general aviation aircraft. The ForeFlight app includes only the general aviation side. The paper chart is far easier to use for planning. Both the paper and PDF/TIF chart include the general aviation and air tour operator side.

The airplane’s engine, propeller, and wings, which have struggled all summer against the ravages of high temperatures and density altitude, are now in their happy place. Some general aviation singles come with winterization kits that are especially effective at keeping the oil and cylinder head temperatures in the green band.
