That is a great question. This thread turned into an interesting thread on high altitude measurement. but because as you pointed out the vast majority of flyers don't even come close to 100k feet. I am using a barometer that is good to ~30k. I believe this captures ~ 95% of the market. This allows me to use a much cheaper barometer and will allow the price to stay as affordable as possible. The high altitude stuff was brought up as a potential expansion in the future if there was demand.The majority of flights would be below 10000ft. That's where the market is for a KISS computer. The scope discussed here is already well beyond KISS.
So KISS or build a full blown 100k capable flight computer. What is it you want to make?
