Best Answer

A fighter jet can just barely fly without the canopy. It would totally upset the pitch of the aircraft and it would have to fly very slowly due to the incoming wind. If the aircraft was above 12,000 feet this lack of pressure would affect the pilot, he would have to lose altitude and land the aircraft soon.
