is there a mod for fs 2004 that alows you to go above 100000 feet

No.

The FS9 world is not a sphere.  It is a cylinder.  Any higher than that and things get distorted.

FSX looks to be a sphere, though, so get ready for a little higher on the limit . . .

thats already been confermed just look at some of the vids and why wasnt is a sphere in the first place

Because I'd imagine it's extremely hard to model a sphere to fly in. Actually, the planet isn't a perfect sphere either. It's some sort of oval.

i did not say perfect sphere i know it isnt it has mountains and stuf . Is it really that complicated i wouldent imagine, adleast make it so i can fly to the poles or edleast fly to the artic circle and have a AIRPORT THAT DOSENT MOVE! good god. that wasnt a big bug or anything

The reason the earth is a cylinder in FS:

Take a square piece of paper and a tennisball.

This is something the FSers of the world have been asking for going back to FS98 or earlier.  It just wasn't feasible for them to kick that to the back burner anymore.  Lots of folks have been wanting to fly the space shuttle, as well as other "space faring" vehicles.

there is always orbiter
