[QUOTE="JBM, post: 61610, member: 1969"] The issue here is that the elevation angle stays the same. When you go to the higher altitude, the same elevation angle will produce the effect you're looking for. On my online stuff, you would have to calculate your standard trajectory, note the elevation angle in the printout, then calculate another trajectory at the higher altitude and with this elevation angle entered and the option "Elevation Correction for Zero Range" turned off so that the program doesn't find a new elevation angle. I agree, many programs do not allow you to do this -- that's why my online stuff allows the entry of an elevation (and azimuth angle) and has the option to turn the corrects off (same for MPM).
