Actually, in thinking about it I have done about 5-10 "underwater" (if
underwater can be defined as below takeoff) saves. It is not that unusual when flying out of a 5,900 msl airport (Truckee) with lower terrain nearby. None like Sergio's 4,700' though! -Bob Korves wrote in message oups.com... When I went to Tonopah several years back, I noticed that Death Valley was on the turnpoint list. I saw an oppotunity for diamond altitude in thermal... but even better, I really enjoyed the notion that you could have a save below sea level and some 6000 feet below the home drome. Never got the chance, thankfully, to sample DV, but it was an interesting notion. I'd still like to log an "underwater" save.
