Planes generally don't travel above the troposphere. The troposphere extends from the surface of the Earth up about 10 miles, although it varies widely depending on season and latitude.

Where are you when You're flying in a plane and the seatbelt sign is turned off troposphere or stratosphere?

You would be flying in the troposphere when the seatbelt sign is turned off. The troposphere is the lowest layer of the Earth's atmosphere where most weather phenomena occur and where commercial air travel takes place. The stratosphere is located above the troposphere and is known for containing the ozone layer.

Pilots DO fly above the troposphere (no opinions) because the flying conditions are better and there is a lot less weather.

Why do planes fly in troposphere?

Planes do not fly in Troposphere. They fly in Stratosphere. The above answer is not true.. Commercial airplanes do fly in Troposphere. Troposphere has the highest density, pressure of all regions . Commercial flights are flying at about 11000m which is about 30 000++ Ft. the temp drop is about 6.5 degree at every 1000 m. Greatest weather and climate changes happen here.. The Troposphere is by far the most important region to general aviation as nearly all flying take place here.. unless its a spy plane or weather balloon where it goes above 14.5 KM into the stratosphere. Fighter jets also do fly into the stratosphere.


If the atmosphere is so big why do planes primarily operate in the troposphere?

Planes primarily operate in the troposphere because it is where most weather phenomena occur, and flying at lower altitudes allows for better fuel efficiency and safety. The troposphere extends from the Earth's surface up to about 8-15 kilometers, providing sufficient air density for lift and engine performance. Higher altitudes, like the stratosphere, have thinner air, which can lead to challenges in maintaining altitude and control. Additionally, flying in the troposphere allows for easier access to airports and air traffic control systems.


Which layer of the atmosphere has the highest humidity?

The troposphere has almost all of them.
