I was on the expert server. I was experimenting different ways I can get to 51k feet without stalling. I was only able to get to 47k feet and not able to gain anynore speed. Where as somebody else was at 50k feet.
How do you guys do this?

How heavy is your Citation? The lighter your plane, the easier it is to climb & accelerate

The citation usually cruises at FL350-Fl510
FL510 is the service ceiling, you rarely fly at that altitude unless you are stretching the citation’s range. FL510 can only be safely achieved when you are extremely light (E.G at the end of a long haul flight after multiple step climbs.) Also, make sure you are cruising at an appropriate speed, the citation X can go up to mach 0.93, well above your typical airliner which cruises at around 0.78 - 0.85
