Marine Ace Sets Altitude Record in Skyrocket D558 2
Lt Col Marlon Eugene Gack, 9% of Quantico, announced an unofficial altitude of 89,235 feet in the Douglas Skyrocket D558-2. He reportedly reached the peak after consuming about 6,000 pounds of fuel in under three minutes, climbing at 1,000 mph at the fastest rate. The feat surpasses the previous 79,494-foot mark set August 15, 1951 by Bill Bridgeman, who also set a world speed record of 1,298 mph in the same aircraft.
