737ng Metric Rvsm Max Altitude
According to the Boeing 737NG Flight Manual the maximum altitude is FL410.
My question is can the NG avail of 12500m in metric RVSM airspace i.e. FL411?

Diff Pressure
No I dont think so as the limit is primarily set due to cabin differential pressure. Any violation would not lead to any immediate damage as it should be within the Ultimate Load limit (ULL). But could compromise integrity in some other situation.
