Have a look at the ADS-B track, convert the altitude readout from PA to MSL and overlay it with a digital elevation model or topo chart and ask yourself "Would I be happy to do that?" I could (almost) guarantee the answer will come back "Yeah, naahhh...." I don't like speaking ill of those that aren't here to defend themselves, but CPL / CIR or no, there's no way in hell I'd "willingly" fly that profile.
Fly the peaks, not the valleys. There be spiders in the valleys.
Noting others comments on the integrity of some of these web trackers I’d like to see an ATSB report reference on the mater.
