More specifics please for those off-airport landings. Otherwise your "1000
feet" may be taken by some as a bit of an exaggeration.

...in an area where density altitude at takeoff can exceed
10,000 feet...t takes a strong tug to keep a heavy two seater
constantly in range of the runway.


...there is no guarantee that the magic 200 feet AGL will
always get you back.


Very good point, and thanks much for the additional information.

You have a much greater challenge then we do here at DA ~2000 feet. The
winds here make every day different.
