Hi

I believe I once read it is 1000mph. Although I am not at all sure. Most of my flying is GA or early Jets, so unless something was to go really really wrong I could never get over around 600 or so.

The top speed you can reach with appropriate planes is slightly under Mach 5 (4.75 Mach, if I remember correctly).

So in FS8 (2002) so in FS9 (2004) so in FS10 (X). This makes a simulation of shuttle re-entry quite as UNreal as it gets. :P
There's but one real cure for human stupidity. It's called DEATH.

At the moment mourning the assassination of sarcasm and irony for the good of the "higher".

I'm assuming this isn't Slew Mode right?
