Given how the trend toward the end of the war was toward higher altitudes to avoid AAA and make it harder for defensive fighters to perform, its seems like the altitudes were rising above 30,000 feet, especially if the B-29 was going to appear in Europe. But how useful was it to bomb at this altitude? What sort of accuracy could be achieved, because it seems like even at 27,000 feet and above only area targets could be hit with dumb bombs used en masse. With altitudes over 30k ft what could actually be hit? Would the attacker need to use even greater mass of bombs and hope to hit something useful by luck?
