What gives an aircraft a higher ceiling?

of power. more thrust have, higher can fly, else being equal.

aerodynamic engineering can make best use of available thrust, thrust tends overriding factor.

ceiling of aircraft, definition, highest altitude can reach. can try go higher won't work. aircraft stay is. in fact, many aircraft unstable @ ceiling altitude, trying go higher might cause them stall , enter spin, or other bad things.

winglets not required flight above 40,000 feet. turbocharging isn't required, either—jets fly high time. need thrust, , how thrust you.

why can aircraft fly higher others? have power?

happens when reach aircrafts ceiling , try fly higher?
