Meatwad, what type aircraft will you be taking into ASE? I have flown a DC-3*, Kingair 90/200, Jet Commander, Saber 40/65, Westwind II, Falcon 50/50EX and a 900EX into ASE. This was on a somewhat regular basis for nearly twenty years. The Falcon 50/900EX has the best performance.

The type of aircraft is very, very important.

One important thing to remember about departing ASE. It is down hill, decreasing ground elevation, all the way to Grand Junction after taking off from ASE.


* The DC-3 only once, boss decided it took too long to use on an ASE run again.
