Default Your favorite altitude

You can carry oxygen on board easily enough. It seems prudent to me to always
have oxygen on board, but that's just me.


Real oxygen in real airplanes costs real money and real weight.

Since in most GA aircraft it is a struggle to get to an altitude
where oxygen is required and except around places like the Rockies
seldom necessary to go that high, most people don't bother with it.

If an aircraft does have oxygen, it most likely has the capability
of easily clearing mountains and the choice is obvious.


If the choice were obvious, I wouldn't ask.


It is obvious to people that fly real airplanes.
