However there is one aircraft from FS2000 I think can actually go higher then 119,000 ft. Has anyone every flown the Independence Day Alien space craft! That aircraft climbs real fast and dives real fast! Shocked! I don't know if it would work in FS2002. But since everyone is in a challenge the ceiling competion. Why don't yall give it a try! 8)


*cough*

Last time I checked, this happens at 100,000ft..

Bear (or in this case fish) with me for my choice of an "aircraft", as I am trying to get a point across..

...


One more note, the term "FL" or Flight Level (in the US) is not used below FL180 and above FL600.  "FL119", grammatically correct, is "alt 11,900".   Anyway..

In the event that you take the X15 and blast up there in FS2002, you'll end up hitting a wall, whether you slew or not, there's a "barrier" at 100k..
 

Keep out of IMC in VFR,&&Tim
