Also, the CAPs usually fly at MUCH higher altitude, and at MUCH higher speed.
Does that include the reading lights of sleeping passengers? :-)
Height = energy = good, for aircraft in general, and ESPECIALLY for fighters. And I second the observation that they would normally be at higher altitude, and the reason why is in my equation above.
Someone was getting checked out. Hope it was just a squirrelly radio or something like that.
Thats correct,usually 50,000 ft,Im told.
