uzzih 0 #1 July 14, 2003 I'm writing a short story about a flight attendant who falls from a plane without parachute. But where could i find information about terminal velocity at differerent altitudes? About breathing at 38,000 feet and if she would pass out? And the freezing termperatures? Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
