Open Top Aircars (Utility to Basic)
These type of aircars have a max ceiling of 9,100 meters. This is due to the oxygen levels needed to sustain brain activity. At this height without oxygen a character will loose consciousness in less then one minute.

Looking through a few Dragon articles this is what I could find:
Tanks Alot, it states that bombs can be mounted on pylons on an aircar.
Here Comes the Cavalry gives a brief description of an VTOL
Fighter-Bomber as "An armored aircar with exterior weapon mounts this
is designed for high-speed bombing runs. However, it is versatile
enough to hold its own in a dogfight.
From Freighters to Flying
Boats, under the description of Amphibious Aircar we see "... Its
underside and wings have pontoons to keep the craft afloat."
There is still no type of altitude given, but it would seem to allude to the aircar being capable of actual flight.
In the adventure Mission to Alcazaar, pg 18 (remastered edition), an
encounter with an aircar has the vehicle aproaching at 400kph with an
altitude of 50 meters.
