Oh god, you don't *ever* want to do that!  The force of the recoil at
high altitudes is magnified due to lower air density.  It can actually
cause the airplane to flip.
Even more significant though is the effect of the bullet on the planet
when it impacts fired thusly.  It's been proven that a bullet fired
thusly accelerates instead of decelerating, achieving speeds in excess
of light.  Thus disapproving the theory of relatives.
Bullets impacting the earth at these speeds can penetrate to the core,
causing cosmic leakage.  This is a proven fact.  For after WWII, when
many airplanes fired bullets thusly, this leakage caused the polar
icecaps to melt, starting the reversal of the magnetic fields, and the
resultant dumbing of America.
