48.4. Modern passenger airliners fly at altitudes ∼10 km. The supersonic airliners “Concord” and “TU-144” that were used for sometime, flied at the altitude 15–20 km, although now they are out of service. The projected supersonic aircrafts of the future, apparently, are going to ...
Overall, drivers of flight altitudes that were related to thermal updrafts showed different levels of complexity due to spatial and temporal variation of those drivers than did flight altitudes related to orographic updrafts.Duerr, Adam EMiller, Tricia A...
Not only can you take advantage of our Gold-level weather layers (such as cloud and precipitation), you can also add layers to display phenomena like turbulence, icing, winds and lightning strikes at select altitudes. You can even view high level significant weather charts, and expandable AIR...

(Los Angeles, California, to New York) in 9 hours, 26 minutes, 10 seconds, at an average speed of 417.0 kilometers per hour (259.1 miles per hour).¹ Most of the flight was made at altitudes of 15,000–18,000 feet (4,572–5,486 meters), and Hughes used supplemental breathing ...
I have not possessed enough of the eagle in my character to make a direct flight to the loftiest altitudes in the social world; and I certainly never endeavored to reach those heights by using the creeping powers of the reptile, who, in ascending, generally chooses the dirtiest path, ...
Valid sort orders are created, updated, popularity and distance. Units Certain numeric values used by the API will be given in a specific units system; this includes lengths, distances, elevations, altitudes, speeds and temperatures. The units system can be chosen using the X-Units header, ...
A characteristic of RF signals in the S-band range is that "line-of-sight" must exist between transmitting and receiving antennas to permit communications. With the availability of the east and west TDRS, potential total S-band PM support time using direct and relay links will be as much as...
I mentioned my plans to do this in the Oz Rally FBO a while back, but now I've started the flight itself. and its backstory takes some telling. My youngest daughter is a Warrant Officer in the RAF and she's based at RAF Shawbury in the West Midlands of t
“birds-eye view” of anywhere you’re flying, and look down on the world as if you were in a glass helicopter. I did this when I was playing over New York City’s Central Park, the trees and the water looked so realistic. Even looking down at the West Side and East Side of ...
