Density Altitude in the Southern States

[Andrew S]

Hi Everyone,

With all the high temperature's in Victoria and South Australia at the moment Im interested to hear if anyone has either been delayed or if you are the pilot flying you have had to cancel the flight due to the very high density altitude.

I just worked out the density altitude for YMML and it came to aprox
4985 feet, I know that is not that big of a deal for the jets allthough a heavily loaded aircraft might find it abit tough but for those flying aircraft with normally aspirated engines it might be to much.
