Alex, just to extend slightly the discussion about leaning.....

flying from an airfield that is more than 5,000' above sea level adds another consideration! Density altitude.

The Wright Brothers found this out when the Flyer that had flown nicely from the Kitty Hawk Beach in North Carolina, was less than enthusiastic when they tried to take off on a hot summer day in Ohio! (Back to the drawing board!)
