Subject: Legacy Takeoff Performance at High Elevation Airports?

Valin,

I've used KSKX (Taos -- elevation 7100; field length 5800; slight down slope on Rwy 22) with no problems.  Last takeoff was with a full load -- around 2300 lb, temp 19C / 66F.  Wind was negligible; takeoff roll at full power (ramped in over 2-3 sec) was 1960 ft; takeoff dist to 35' alt was 3200 ft.  I get these figures by integrating V dt from my Garmin data logger.  

Climb rate at 160 KIAS / 2500 rpm / 21.5 inHg (WOT) / 9000 ft was around 800 fpm.
