i used Kirk's F-16 Viper to do some testing...this is the result...can you do this? (i used DSB's Typhoon panel, watch close to the Mach and Alititude indicators)

i can almost smell vacuum...it's 9am, but at this altitude, the sky looks dark... 8)

approaching 100 000ft 8)

over 100 000ft and still climbing...i start feeling weigthless...look at that speed...

after that it was time to return into the atmosphere...

note: i didn't tweak the aircraft.cfg file or anything else...let that be clear! Wink

Happened to me, when I took it from AMS to Innsbruck, thought to do a flyby the tower. Passing M 1.6, she jerked and started doing M 4.6 instantly.
No need to say I crashed into a mountain shortly afterward.

Redid the flight with the same result, seems it is a glitch in the flight model or my system. I managed to pull up just before slamming in the mountain again. Now I know what a Mach 5 looping looks like.
