You guys are giving bad advice. I fly a Glastar with an O-320 E2A in
it. I have flown dozens of hours at density altitudes above 15000 ft.
And that is with the plane loaded to GW.
I agree, I have flown my RV-6 at 15000 ft several times when I had a
O-320 E2D on it and it was still climbing with no problem. I used to fly
across the mtns. in my Tripacer at altitudes of 14,500. John Ammeter
something does not sound right that you could not get your RV-6 above
13,500.
