Nice... even if the 163 is more a rocket than a plane... :P

I've passed 96K in a 163.  I think someone else passed 100K (I think 103K is the record).  When I did it my entire plane disappeared which is what ended my run but it reappeared on the way down and I landed successfully.

Back an AH1 you could go WAY over 100K in the main arena, but you had to take a C47 with 25% fuel and it might of been on the uterus map from one of the top right hand bases

Dont think I have any pictures anymore but I have some films from AH1 that isnt compatible with AH2. Trying to find an AH1 viewer right now

I think the film is long gone but I did find one where I climbed up over 15K on the mountain on mindano in an m16 and ran downhill over 200mph in neutral


Here is one I found on photobucket at 70K feet which is apparently all I have left :(

Nice shot and it shows a populated arena meaning you weren't taking off at a 30k field.

I've used the 30k field in the practice arena but I feel main arena records are coolest.

How does a B-17 get above 35k?

I've taken a 163 to about 104k. I don't know how to do screen shots, and even if I did I don't know how to share them.

One note, I suppose I cheated because I did it offline. It took me more than two dozen tries, each time getting higher and higher. I don't have enough perks to do that in the MA. I'm guessing the flight modeling is identical between offline and MA.

So the germans not only had jets, they invented rockets capable of reaching these heights? Did Hilter secretly conduct a space program as well? :lol
