Alex, how fast would you have to go, atop an airplane, for your face to catch on fire? I mean assuming you're well braced behind, so you can't blow off, and you're wearing retard-ant clothing, so that it doesn't catch first and spread.

Near sea level.
(Not at sea level, obviously, because there wouldn't be room for the plane.)

What do you think? 600 - 650 mph?
