According to the story, which we all know how accurate those can be, he was
"NEAR" 18000, I read that as 17,999 and not 18,001. Benefit of the doubt
to him, especially given the accuracy of the equipment.

I thought he went above 18000 feet and not talking to approach.and that
was why they detained him. I hope they at least paid for his fuel.
