Re: Track Altitudes
try this. It shows some altitude numbers. Sometimes 80% humidity is a good day.

Re: Track Altitudes
I dont know how accurate Google World is but I found some interesting results by checking the shown elevations of the starting line and finish line at the tracks I checked.
Atco s/l 93' f/l 84' Cecil s/l 309' f/l 291' (I always MPH well there) Numidia s/l 865' f/l 880' Just a few examples. Ed F.

Re: Track Altitudes
Wow. If those numbers reflect a trend, that could explain a lot about a lot of different tracks. Wish I had time to put this info together for all the tracks. Would be interesting to see.
