avbug, the elevtation all around Houston is less than 200 feet. To get to 9000 feet in a 152, first you have to get out of class B and then climb. With 2 people, figure an average climb of 400 feet per minute to 9000 feet plus (22 minutes) plus the time to get out from under class b (estimate another 15 minutes?) That almost 40 minutes just to do steep turns. No way.I'm not sure why anybody thinks that 9,000 is a strange place for doing airwork. Much better than 200', I would think. It's quite possible that other things were being performed at that altitude, and the instructor elected to request steep turns there. I've spent plenty of time there, with students.
