"Kevin Clarke" wrote in message ... 2 reports on the evening news today (Boston area) on small plane crashes. A C172M crashed at Mansfield, Ma. 4 people on board, 2 fatalities. This was on Saturday, a day that produced record high temperatures for the area. Density altitude/overloading problem? Were those density altitudes higher than they were in July?

I'm pretty sure we had some hotter days this summer than the 95 or so on the 8th. In any case, Mansfield is only 122' msl. -- Bob Noel (goodness, please trim replies!!!)

Someone posited that it was 95F. I'd rather that 95F there, than in Denver or Cheyenne, which we do hit frequently, from June through August. -- Matt Barrow Performance Homes, LLC. Cheyenne, WY

But it is irrelevant. That plane, with that low time pilot, with that MGTW, on that day was not there in July. KC

Possibly, but we have 172's take off out here in the mountainous west all summer, and we START at 5500-6000 feet, not the 100 some odd feet in MA. -- Matt Barrow Performance Homes, LLC. Cheyenne, WY
