Great Shot. Thats the Notrth American X-15. During a test flight in 1959 it reached an altitude of 314,750 ft. and a speed of 4105 m.p.h. Where did u download it from??

Its an old FS98 plane so the textures are shocking. The performance is extreme tho (314000feet lol, ive had 10 times that) U can get it from this site if u "search file libraries"

Jeez, it would be fun to be the pilot who did that!!!

lol, yeah,. but its all fun and games till u try and land it, it has no wheels , so its like skiing.......with a plane.at high speed. Oh and has so much thrust it can take of almost vertically lol. Although i htink that just the dodgy fs98 air file
