Subject: MH Club Membership for Lancair Pilots

I have a pilot friend at the local airport that has bragged to me about his repeated renewal (in his twin Baron) of his membership in the Mile High Club.  I won't bore you with the details. 

But when asked with a certain level of disbelief, he comments that the membership requirement could easily be fulfilled in my Lancair IVP, and encourages me to do so with certain positional methods and advice.  I remain speculative, given my level of Situational Awareness and understanding the space available in the Lancair.  Still, he believes it is very possible.

Has anyone joined that Club in a Lancair, and how did you manage throttle/prop/mixture (especially LOP operations) during the membership drive?  Any autopilot issues?  Other insights would be interesting.

I recently completed my annual recurrency with LOBO, but I didn't discuss this crew resource management issue with my instructor.
