Leo,

You sound like Steve Riley at Round Valley Dome. He said “See the four bolts up near the top. Bolts in, it’s Cat III, bolts out, it’s Cat IV”.

I get 99' at the portion of one edge of the disk but I count the height as 98' in all my plane notes. The plastic covered edge goes up 6' or more . I usually get 105' when I measure where the plane bounces but one of my notes have has 108' for a max height of the plastic shroud when I bounced many times in 2013. In 2013 and again this year, my F1L glanced the bottom of the highest girder but I was too excited worrying about my plane to measure anything!
