Quote:As DF has already pointed out above, transports can fly at significantly higher altitudes than even 7500 feet.  Heck, Cessnas have a higher cruising altitude.  A 172 can cruise at 10,000 feet. 

 

He also pointed out what I was trying to get across they fly at a higher altitude than military planes. Like I said the number I'm off on but the point is anyone firing that weapon knows civilian planes fly at a different altitude then military planes pretty much eliminating the possibility it was shot down by accident.
