Discussions center on aircraft and drone flying altitudes, regulatory limits like 400ft rules, distinctions between AGL and MSL measurements, flight levels, and cruising heights in aviation contexts.

I wonder if it's because can fly higher than 65,535ft.
Any idea what is the altitude of these planes?
10k feet sounds a bit low. i thought the limit was at 60k feet and 600MPH
from their cruising altitude? more then 10000km up?
We are discussing high altitude flyovers here.
Nice plane you have, if you fly above 10000' or above 150 knots frequently :-)
Wouldn't this not effect anything if you fly over 500ft AGL?
The feet measurement was above sea-level not ground-level. The airport there is around 7600 feet. So in actual fact this plane was only sitting 500-1000 feet above ground.

What makes you think it was at anywhere near 80 000 ft?
