    Cool but of course way out of scale. The International Space Station would be about half the height of the highest airplanes in the video. Gives you an idea of how thin our atmosphere is.

    It's also from July 2006. A lifetime ago in the airline industry. Saw a few carriers no longer around...

    Neat, but very misleading on the height as 25 miles high would just be a hair off the map. That wouldn't do any good though as everything would be merged and wouldn't see climbs and decents.

    Also misleading in that I've flown coast to coast many times and not seen another airplane enroute until I reached my destination. It's really wide open up there.

    It appears 4/5 Fchatters are saying:

    Remix, your post is bad and you should feel bad.
