Density altitude

Temperatures are rising and you're probably faced with operating in high-density-altitude conditions. How will your aircraft perform when the thermometer hits 90-plus degrees Fahrenheit? Fully loaded, will you still comfortably clear the obstructions off the end of the runway? How much more runway will you need for takeoff at 95 degrees than you needed at 65 degrees? You can mitigate surprises by using a flight computer and your pilot's operating handbook to crunch the numbers for various combinations of airports and temperatures to anticipate the conditions you may experience.

Earn rewards, help our efforts

With the AOPA WorldPoints Rewards credit card, AOPA members can earn points for their own personal use while helping the association fight issues such as the FAA funding debate and airport closures. AOPA receives valuable revenue from every purchase made with the card.

You automatically earn two points for every dollar spent at more than 4,000 FBOs on select AOPA products and services and at participating aviation retailers: Sporty's Pilot Shop, Pacific Coast Avionics, King Schools, Aircraft Spruce & Specialty Co., and Gulf Coast Avionics. Plus you automatically receive one point for each dollar spent on everyday purchases. And there are no limits to the number of points you can earn or redeem.

Reward redemption opportunities begin with as little as 2,500 points for cash and merchandise. As you earn more points, you may opt for gift certificates from major retailers. The more points you earn, the more valuable your rewards:

• Travel with no blackout dates on the airline that you choose.
• Redeem points for Celebrity Cruises trips.

AOPA WorldPoints Rewards credit card also offers MyConcierge as a complimentary benefit. MyConcierge offers many customized services:

• Dining arrangements and reservations
• Gifts and personal shopping
• Tickets for sporting events, concerts, shows, and more.
