Well there was this time I drove my 911 up to 200.....

Actually the place I worked for many years owned a Bellanca super viking. The owner told everyone it was a 200 Knot airplane but that was a slight exaggeration. I was in it once when we had a great tail wind and we hit 220 knots. I was in the right seat so I was not really flying it, just in it.

On our trip back from Orlando, FL we were in one of the giant Airbus airplanes. It held half the airport I think. Anyway the pilot let us listen to the cockpit conversation if we wanted. I was looking out the window and noticed we were way up there. About then he said they were at 43,000 feet. I can only guess he was flying over a thunderstorm. That is the highest I have ever been.
