You don't want to fly higher because of the wake turbulence. It can grab you and roll you into another plane. So with that in mind we fly a little lower and offset to one side so we don't eat a premature deployment.Chris Schindler www.diverdriver.com ATP/D-19012 FB #4125 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Join the conversation You can post now and register later.
