Both JSBSim and YASim have their own atmosphere models including such tables where JSBSim goes up to 259186ft and YASim to 18900m (62008ft). Reminds me that I should test again, if it's still possible to reach Earth orbit and do interstellar travel with an F-16 ;) Maybe this got better in newer JSBSim versions. But it's pretty strange, since JSBSim should be the FDM to do this right with the table up to 260Kft...
