We have two hangars, one in MMMX (Mexico City), and one in MMTO (Toluca), 30 miles apart.

Mexico City is at 7,340 FT AMSL and Toluca is at 8445 FT AMSL, you cannot go between the two without going up to 10,500 FT AMSL,

When I said I was doing autos at 9400 FT HD I added the "HD" to indicate Density Altitude, altitude above sea level was somewhere around 7,800 FT AMSL, but HD was 9400 FT

Yesterday's HD at MMTO was almost 12,000 FT.
