Pushing the Limits! Having Fun With the Challenger 350

Route: KATL (Atlanta) - KMCO (Orlando)

Today, I had an amazing flight in the Challenger 350. I had no payload on board, so it was the perfect opportunity to do some testing, which allowed me to climb the jet to 49,000 feet for the entire course of the journey. Here’s some highlights:


At Atlanta getting ready for departure. Flight plan is filed and procedures checked.


Rocket Takeoff! A whopping 25-30 degrees without using much power at all, on route to Orlando. Bye bye, Atlanta :wave:


We have arrived at our cruising altitude of 49,000 feet. Just look how beautiful the Earth looks from up there. Oh, here’s a couple extra:


Coming in hot! As for every flight, what goes up must come down. I made an expeditious descent rate as I came closer to Orlando. You can see I kept the spoilers out a bit longer than for a normal flight.


Alas, we begin lining up on final approach to Orlando. I would have featured the landing part if I had known that my device disconnected moments before touchdown :expressionless:


We’ve finally arrived and have parked at our designated parking bay. Time to shut the engines down and disembark from the plane.Thank you for viewing this! Let me know what your thoughts are on this short journey.

I love testing the limits as well - I remember when I took a Boeing 757 to 45000ft during a Flash Flight :joy:

45000FT!!! Whatt

Impressive! I think I’ll try that out next time.

I’ve done overnighters with the 767 at FL470 at some points.
