The standard atmosphere was done in 1976. That was during the COMING ICE AGE hysteria. An updated version would begin at the boiling point of water and reflect an inversion to the tropopause.

Fortunately, HTC used Ice Age numbers or our density altitude would be through the roof in game.

It would be nice to see the Mountains above cloud layer with some snow on them instead of green grass
