Hi guys I have just been told by a friend than the mountain in background is not Aconcagua, it is Alto Los Leones wich is 17.650 feet over sea level. I apologize for the mistake. But anyway I crossed Andes at 16.000 feet through Paso Los Libertadores (Mendoza Argentina - Los Andes Chile) and it has been the first time a 701 does it.

Aconcagua is 22.841 feet and Everest is 29.000, there is a big difference.

Aconcagua is just a little shorter than Everest! Wow! Were you on oxygen?
Wait! Who took the air-to-air shot? In what kind of plane?
