I discussed it a little bit with Dave. As far as the high altitude performance of the 737 is concerned, he wondered if maybe sea level conditions were getting passed to JSBSim. He also suggested a test: run the simulation as before and check the atmosphere properties (pressure or density) at 100,000 feet. See if it corresponds to sea level conditions. That would be a pretty good first guess at where to look, I think. I'll have a look at the air-ground.nas file and see what it would take to model that in the <flight_control> section of the 737 flight model.
