tbostick 0 #1 June 12, 2002 I've flown my canopy in 20 degrees F, and at 100 degrees F. But is the difference in performance, response time, altitude loss, more or less than say... going from sea level to 5000 msl? I've only flown my canopy between 1500 and 2500 field elevation. Is heat or elevation a bigger factor? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
