[Guptar]

Does anyone know what the lowest airport is in terms of field elevation?

Airport or Airfield?

Try Furnace Creek(L06), Death Valley. -210 feet, -64m.

There is also IMP imperial in southern cal. If i remember correctly it's sitting at -50 feet. I was flying in and out in a Beech 1900 with temps above 100 deg, makes an interesting performance problem. (Above max ops temp for the plane, no charts available for - altitudes, ...)

Salton Sea at minus 111 feet.

Hmmm...

Furnace Creek in Death Valley, eh?

Bit warm there, is it then?

Does anyone know what the highest airport is?

Howabout Leadville(LXV), Colorado at 9,927 feet above sea-level.

Needs a lift to get as high as Bangda(BPX), Tibet at 14,219 feet!
