On the other hand, out here (central Ontario) most of the real estate does
not much exceed 1000' ASL. I have the Great Lakes on three sides and most
of the territory I fly over when going any distance is trees, rocks, and
small lakes - no emergency land sites, just crash sites. Even the 3800' SE
ceiling of the Twinkie with the Robertson STOL kit would be enough to
prevent an engine failure from ruining my day.

Out here, most airports are around 3000MSL, with terrain over 8000MSL
between them, add in the density altitude factor on a standard 100F or
higher day.. and that single engine is not going to be me to an
airport. BT
