Smaller aircraft fly in the troposphere, the lower level of the atmosphere. Military and passenger jeys fly into the stratosphere (above 8 km or above 26,000 feet) to reduce the air friction they encounter, and sometimes use the jet stream to improve their speed.

Yes many jets can travel at this speed as can props
Why are fighter jets pressurizes?
they fly almost above 15km, where atmospheric pressure is very low.
At what altitudes do jet planes fly?
It really depends on what the size of the jets. The Airlines fly from 32,000 to 38,000 feet.Normal Jet Planes fly at about 30,000 feetMilitary Jet planes fly anywhere from 100 feet all the way up to 80,000 (Some do go higher but those are for special occasions)
Do Nascar drivers fly airplanes and jets?
I'm sure that some of them have planes but one driver who really likes to fly airplanes is Carl Edwards.
What do planes and jets fly in?
They fly in air. High-performance military fighter jets have engines powerful enough that they can fly straight up, like a 'rocket ship'. But aside from those, all airplanes need air in order to remain aloft.
What elevation do airplanes fly?
Most prop planes fly any where from 1,000-5,000 ft. Airliners usually fly from 10,000-20,000 ft. Military jets fly at pretty much any altitude
What happened to the other planes in the sky on September 11?
All planes were grounded. They had to land at the nearest airport and for 3-4 days no planes were allowed to fly. An interesting side note several private jets were allowed to fly Ben Laudin family members to Saudi destinations .
