I jumped in my Jug, and took her up slow and easy so as not to lose air speed.

Taking off from NYC.

Crossing 30,000.

Passing 45,000!

I thought I was going to stall so I pulled up trying to get a few more feet out of her, but wound up getting more. 48,661 Ft!

Dropping back down.

At this point my bird is shaking violently. Right before I managed to pull out, 691.6 kts! At 5,265.4 Ft!

I managed to pull out at 2,500 Ft. by pulling all the way back, full elevator trim, and flaps!

And now I have no idea where I am.

They are not fake.

Not really. The ceiling of the P-47 is about 40,000ft. and we all know an aircraft's limits can bent.
