Unlikely.

There were thunder storms around at the time. One doesn't fly through
thunder storms if one likes life, so they will cause some disruption. I
expect that was the problem.

Bugger, the death squad were too busy setting up
for the execution of Prigozhin to shoot it down.

You just can't get any reliable people anymore.

Makes, sense if it can be organised, saves fuel.

I doubt that. Aircraft fly high because a particular indicated airspeed,
and thus drag requiring thrust, gives a higher true air speed. Doing an
orbit at high altitude just means a greater distance has to be flown for
a given required delay.

There you go, lying thru your fucking teeth, as alwasys,
most obviously with that other terminal stupidity of yours,
when you stamped your foot about what is legal with that
medical practice and your other terminal stupidity about
your demands about emergency exits from sydney trains.

That's just saying what I said in different words, lower drag and so
greater fuel efficiency.

Your claim was that an orbit at high altitude saves fuel. Now, given
that the purpose of the orbit was to achieve a delay, how would flying
for the same period of time at a lower altitude, but the same indicated
airspeed, save fuel?

Of course it does, for the same reason those altitudes are used for
cruising.

That isnt what happened.

No one said anything about the same airspeed.

Keep furiously digging, you'll be out in china any day now.

My guess is that there a lot of other aircraft in the pattern, if the
aircraft you were on was already at 41,000 no reason to descend until
there was space for it at a lower altitude.
If it had descended on approach then climbed back to 41,000 then IMHO
that would be a very strange thing to do.

** Consider the following:

At 41,000 feet, the *amount* of oxygen in a given volume of air drops by over 4 times, while the percentage remains constant.
Fuel flow is necessarily reduced to maintain the optimum combustion temperature ( and so thrust) at higher altitudes.
The low drag condition allows higher speeds despite this and so longer range.

By the time the air is being used to burn fuel, its velocity relative to
the engine has been reduced, and it has been passed through multiple
compression stages, so the volumetric oxygen density in the ambient air
is pretty much irrelevant.

The point at issue is whether fuel is saved by flying a greater distance
at higher speed in more rarified air, compared with flying a smaller
distance at lower speed in denser air, in order to achieve the same
delay. This last aspect is important, because the aircraft is not trying
to get somewhere more quickly, and use less fuel thereby. Regardless of
its altitude, the time spent doing the orbit is the same, because that
was the required delay.

Have fun explaining why jet aircraft cruise at those altitudes.

Wrong, as always.

The real point is the fuel consumed when delaying for the time required.

Of course what matters is the fuel consumed to delay for the time required.

But what matters is the fuel consumed to to that.

They can fly faster up there.

I know people think in terms of lower drag, and for a give true airspeed
it is lower. But so is the lift, and the same lift is required
regardless of altitude. So the aircraft has to fly faster to get the
same lift, and at that faster speed it has the same drag, because the
lift-drag ratio of the wing doesn't magically improve due to thinner air.

That's not the reason they fly there.

Pity the real reason is that the lower drag means better fuel efficiency
and since that is the main controlable cost. that's why they fly there.

The drag isn't lower, for the reason I stated. I thought you understood
this stuff. Apparently, I was wrong.

You previously correctly said that it is.

height.

You never said that.

I do, and you don't and can't even manage to run
