This may be a dumb question but I've always been curious about it? Class A airspace extends from FL180 to FL600. What type of airspace is above that?

Technically, Class A airspace starts at 18,000ft MSL and not FL180. FYI.

@wbeard52 Thanks! What's the difference? Wait, I saw your other question. I'll have to do some research.

The airspace above FL600 is Class E.
