I made up my minds to fly on my old DR400. the max ceiling is around 15000ft so it should be ok with a cruise alt 11500ft but lil margin left:) I suggest 2 steps altitude for cruise, 7500ft till Albertville, and 11500ft from albetville to VOR CSN 116.75MHz at Torino. I hope to see you there at 1600 UTC and hope internet wont crash.
