I have the Cateye AT100 bike computer/altimeter, and although it's great on
the bike it won't help much in a plane unless you include a video camera to
watch the altitude. :) It doesn't store max altitude in any way. It
does however store accumulated altitude change, so theoretically one could
use that to know how high you went - but only if you can assure your climb
was continuous; every dip you make just adds to the altitude on the return
climb.
