  2. 135
  3. 15,000
  4. 135,000feet when it began its descent.

This can't be determined.....the plane could have been at any height.....we would have to know the descent angle to calculate the answer to this question.......{although 15,000 seems most reasonable }

In other words,  the answer is A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H,I,J,K,L,M,N,O,P,Q,R,S,T,U,V,W,X,Y,Z,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 or any other number that stretches out to infinity
