• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

High Flier

Is there anything that will fly higher than the default F35 in P3D v 4.3. Seeing how high I can go. It's cool seeing the stars come out in the middle of the day.

Well I made it into space with the shuttle (freeware pitcure attached). Strange stuff happens up there and the sky is all black and full of stars. The altimeter topped off at 99,000 feet and while coming back there was a lot of shaking passing back through FL 99 (when the altimeter finally started to register again. On my descent I luckly passed through a thunderstorm and was above all the lightning, very weird. The picture is after I finally came to a stop at some airport in FL not far from Cape Canaveral where I launched from.

I was going to suggest one of the early Aerosoft Lightnings, but I don't think anything would beat the Shuttle.
