If a plane window breaks when the plane is flying at high altitude, all the air in the plane will instantly rush out - along with anything that isn't tied down. Watch the "getting the snakes out of the cockpit" scene in Snakes on a Plane or either of the first two Airport movies for a good cinematic demonstration of this.

Not sure but it might have been the SR-71 Blackbird.
A helicopter cannot reach a plane's altitude because it does not have much lift. No, the air is to thin high up for a helicopter to sustain flight.
The building is at a high altitudeAfter take-off a plane climbs to a safe altitude before leveling off.
Better fuel economy. The air is thinner at higher altitudes.

Yes, you can see the curvature of the Earth from a plane when flying at a high altitude, typically above 35,000 feet.
