On the release of the 1st RC patch, Luthier said all planes had issues over 26,000 ft i think he was be rather generous to himself, in fact it is more like 12,000 ft.

But we have to look on the bright side.. online very little happens above 17,000ft, and going forward mission designers will just have to take this into account and knock 10,000 foot off ideal altitudes for bombers etc.

There is no point adding bomber over 18,000 ft considering few few red models can doing anything more than creep alone up there.

that's right madtommy. It's a complete joke to say above 26,000 feet there are issues, a huge slap in the face to all! It takes an entire day to climb to that height in the current state! Above 10,000 feet there are big issues and inaccuracies.

We will all just have to continue fighting at sea level for the time being. Below 10,000 feet is the only altitude where the game is somewhat accurate.
