What is service ceiling of an aircraft?
The service ceiling of an aircraft is the maximum altitude that the aircraft can safely maintain.
What is the Airbus A380 cruise altitude?
35,000ft (A380-800, initial cruise altitude). The service ceiling (maximum altitude) of this aircraft is 43,000 ft.
What is the maximum flying altitude for unpressurized aircraft when transporting a patient suffering decompression sickness?
zero feet
What is the maximum altitude of a barrage balloon?
The maximum altitude of a barrage balloon is typically around 15,000 feet (4,500 meters). This height allows the balloon to effectively discourage low-flying aircraft from targeting ground units.
What is maximum altitude?
There are two types of maximum altitude. The first is set by the FAA and is known as Service Ceiling and the second is the maximum altitude, above sea level, at which an aircraft can maintain horizontal flight under standard atmospheric conditions. This is called Absolute Ceiling. Absolute ceiling is also affected by another factor: weight.
Maximum altidude for military jet?
The maximum altitude of any military aircraft is dependent on many things including the type of craft. The maximum altitude for a military jet is approximately 60 thousand feet. At that level the flight crew will need special equipment to allow them to breathe and stay conscious in the thin air.
What is an absolute ceiling?
An absolute ceiling is the maximum altitude above sea level at which an aircraft or missile can maintain horizontal flight under normal conditions.
What is the first aircraft in space?
The first aircraft in space was the Bell X-1, piloted by Chuck Yeager on October 14, 1947. It was the first aircraft to exceed the speed of sound in level flight and reached a maximum altitude of 45,000 feet.
How high does an airplane go in the sky?
Depending on the type of airframe and aircraft would tell you the maximum altitude an aircraft can obtain. Even then, specific aircraft (i.e. jets, propeller powered planes, biplanes) all have different maximum altitudes or ceilings. To answer the question, what aircraft has the most unrestricted ceiling?, that is the SR-71 Black hawk with a ceiling of roughly 80,000 feet. *NOTE: Because of the high altitude and air pressure, pilots need a special suit and mask that provides them with protection from the upper recesses of the atmosphere
What is a cruising altitude why?
Cruising altitude is an economical height for an aircraft to fly. It is also a choice made in view of other aircraft routes.
At what altitude does the aircraft arrive to operate and fly?
Aircraft typically arrive at an altitude of around 30,000 to 40,000 feet to operate and fly.
What is the highest altitude aircraft?
the vagna 137
