Absolute Ceilings for the Century Series Fighters

[hawker111]

 

Does anyone know what the absolute ceilings are for:

 

F-100

F-101

F-102

F-104

F-105

F-106

F-110/F-4

 

The highest altitude that a fighter can climb to and maintain level flight. A higher altitude can be reached in a "zoom climb," of course.

 

Does anyone know the approximate altitude numbers?

 

Thanks,

Dave,

 

Does this website have both the service ceiling numbers and also the absolute ceiling numbers?

Check it out and see if it has what are you looking for.

This is a fabulous site; albeit a bit dated.
