Whats the highest you've flown in the MA?

I think my squaddie, Phantom4, holds the unofficial AH record, he managed to get up to 160,000 feet in a ME163 (unlimited fuel during the Con last year) before he fell off his chair..:D  Not bad for a real-life backseater in a F4 Phantom...

Angels 31 in a 109G10 on autopilot while watching "The Howard Stern Show" before I realized that I wasn't going to find anything to shoot at that altitude.

There used to be (and probably still is) a bug that will let a C-47 go over 200k in the MA.

48k in  a P-38.

And it was during a snaphot last year, we had a group of P-38s meet a group of zeke's in the 40's alt. Was real fun.

LOL Hooli!
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude than the animated contest of freedom, go from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen!
