Carefully figure density altitude. At 5000' your engine and aircraft
performance has already been reduced considerably. Without an E6B in front
of me, I still can imagine a hot day can push that up to the 8000' - 9000'
ft. level, at which point you engine is only a small percentage of rated hp
and you'll see climb performance in the very low numbers. roger

Randy,
For them to give you useful information, it might help to know your
proposed
take-off weight and prop length/pitch.
The data I see on AIRNAV.COM looks difficult enough I would have
considered
this one cautiously in a Coupe, even with my 7146 climb prop. (One-way
runway, 5,000 high, 3400' long turf)
It looks like a lot of fun to fly into. Be careful!
Ed
