Default Your favorite altitude

I like to fly low. Ideally, I'd fly 500 feet above the treetops in good
visibility. It's a great XC excercise, but WATCH FOR TOWERS!
Most often I'm a thousand or two above the ground, depending on terrain.
Windy and hilly make me want some more altitude. I will climb for a
good tailwind and to remain within gliding distance of land.

The view is quite different at nine thousand than at two.
