Alt - 96,408ft

Postby EricK » Wed Aug 20, 2003 1:14 pm

Hi there,
I'm sure this is old hat, but this is the highest I've ever been able to get in FS2002. I figured it was worth the screen shot. I hope the info at the top is readable after the downsize and JPEG conversion but just in case, it says 96,408ft and yes it is just about to stall!

Also, I'd be curious to know what the highest altitude is that other people have achieved?

Enjoy
Eric

I've hit the big 100k too, I was going like a mad thing in the SR-71, and I stalled after getting there and being there for about 2 seconds ;D
Nice job though ;)

100k in the Space Shuttle. Even higher if I'm flying in "Orbiter."

Wow,
Obviously this was not unchartered territory!

I'm going to have to try for 100k now. I wonder if the ceiling of 100 has changed for 2004 or at least if the sky colour at that altitude is more realistic (dark!)
Thanks for the replies
Eric

Yeah, in Orbitor i've been up to about 86 million miles. ;D

If you like flight sims orbitor is a must have simulation.

Its all freeware and there are loads of great freeware addons being made for it all the time.
