heh heh, i really found this funny!rumpletumbler said:Its fun to rig a Tomahawk with about 6 JATO pods and climb to the service ceiling without oxygen. Trim the aircraft for what you know to be about a 60kt glide. Then pretend you are Chuck Yaeger and light them all and point it straight up. Hold your breath so you won't pass out. Once you hit about FL350 level the wings and then gasp for air till you pass out. Sometimes it takes a few tries to get it so that you wake up before surface contact is made but thats half the fun.

I doubt if you'll be encountering any Commanches up there, even if Flyin Tony remembers to lean the mixture!
And before you start throwing stones, why are you planning on going up to FL470? Just because you can? Going westbound you should be able to stay out of the winds in the high 30s/ low 40s.
Do you know what your TOC is at 47,000'? About seven seconds. Think that's enough time for the CEO and his secretary to get their masks on?
