Eric, we see the same thing out here at the Colorado Front range. Having the ability to go higher would be a great help with some of the weak patches and discontinuities in our ranges. For a long (crosswind) flight in our location those gaps can be significant. Even being able to go up to 20-22K would be a big help, and you would not incur a big TAS penalty. Speaking of downwind wave dashes, Dr. Joachim Kuettner is sponsoring a new prize for the first person to complete a 2000km downwind wave flight. I believe details on this prize will be coming soon from the SSA. Nice to see these long flights being done without logging frequent flyer miles on Aerolineas Aregentina. Bill Hoadley
