Flying a MiG-29 60,000 feet Above Earth

Share

    Team Wolfpack racecar driver and Ferrari test pilot Josh Cartu flying a Mikoyan MiG-29 Fulcrum fighter jet with MiGFlug. From Gumball3000 races Josh is used to high speed and incredible machines. But during the Edge of Space flight in the MiG-29 military jet, Josh did not only break the sound barrier and reached a top speed close to Mach 2, he also climbed to nearly 20km altitude. The MiG-29 is a fighter jet legend and backbone of many air forces. It is the only 4th generation fighter jet and the only supersonic jet that can currently be flown by Civilians, worldwide. The altitude of up to 20km is reached by flying a ballistic flight path with supersonic speed, and a climb rate of up to 330m/s!
