Default Confusion about when it's my navigation, and when it's ATC

How does the 172 fly when you pilot it at FL250 yourself?



It can't get up there, the C172 has a service ceiling arount 14,000 ft.


I had mine on a cold day to 14,500 and still climbing at 500 fpm. Forgot
the O2 to go any highter. I just wanted to see how high I could go. I
was in contact with ATC for monitoring. Just a fun thing to do.
