Why do jet airplanes fly at high altitudes?
Jet airplanes fly at high altitudes because it is more fuel efficient. Flying at higher altitudes uses less fuel than flying at lower altitudes.
Why do rescue helicopters have a difficult time flying at altitudes above 6000 meters?
Because the air is thinner there
What are the advantages of a high altitude flight?
One advantage is that there is usually less turbulence at higher altitudes. I think because you are flying higher than those "pockets" of turbulence that you experience at lower altitudes.
Does barometric pressure go up or down in high altitudes?
Should you be flying does barometric pressure go up or down
Why one of the windows in the Flying At High Altitudes Breaks?
as their is high pressure inside and low pressure outside and air moves
Can ducks fly High Altitudes?
Ducks normally fly from 200 to 4,000 feet when migrating, but are capable of flying much higher.
What was the highest flying weapon in World War 2?
Germany's A4/V2 rocket reached altitudes of between 52 and 60 miles.
What altitudes should be Flying a Magnetic course of 0deg to 179 deg?
fly at odd thousands plus 500 ft (3,500;5,500 ect)
What altitudes should be Flying a Magnetic course of 180deg to 359 deg?
fly at even thousands plus 500 ft (4,500;6,500 ect)
How do airplanes protect people from the decreased air pressure when flying at high elevations?
When flying at hight altitudes (+12,000FT) planes pressurize the cabin so passengers can stay conscious without wearing oxygen masks.
Why fighters planes fly at great heights?
At high altitudes the atmosphere is less dense that at lower altitudes. This means that planes flying higher experience less drag (friction) than those lower down, so that means they can go faster.
