Crazy stat- a U2 aircraft flying at its max altitude, the difference between the stall speed and the Mach speed is just

Wow, I had never heard this. Amazing

Why would it be dangerous to exceed Mach speed?

Because the air starts buffeting over the wings and the wings lose lift

What if you’re Tom Cruise? I assume you can go faster in that case?

If you're Tom Cruise, you HAVE to go faster.

What would a 5 knot range be equivalent to in driving terms?

Well, duh. A knot is a nautical mile, and you wouldn't be driving at sea.

That’s any aircraft though operating at its max altitude. That altitude can fluctuate depending on weight also.
