I recently few my Warrior up to 9000 ft near maximum gross (2440 lb),
to get clear of cloudtops -- it was a hot day, so the density altitude
was well over 10,000 ft. It takes a little while to climb up there on
a hot day, but it's not a big deal, even with 160 hp. I imagine that
an Archer could handle it much more easily.


Thanks for the tips. The reason I'm asking is that I've never heard/seen
anyone flying 10000 ft in an Archer or equivalent here in Finland. Of
course we don't have any terrain requiring that kind of altitude, but
the weather and controlled airspace (some airways start at 9500ft)
sometimes require higher altitudes.

It's nice to know that it's possible, like the aircraft manual says too.

Regards,

Lasse
