She took off from groom lake and managed to reach 16000 feet in 8 minutes of flight. She’s a hearty old 737 66n

thought all those janet flights were people just going to work, and were flown by ex mil pilots, maybe she was being pushed by someone who liked to go fast.

    It could have been a hotshot pilot, corrupt data and I also didn’t checking the elevation of the starting runway. It turns out there’s a pretty decent wiki for the Janet flights. I even remember in one of the mast flight sims there was a Janet mission for one of the scenarios.
