The Astraeus flight from Stansted to Rekyjavik and return regularly flies over at FL400.

Highest Flight Level I've seen is FL485, for N144KK, a Gulfstream V operated by GC Air Llc.  Don't know if that's a genuine FL, as I've seen several over 100,000ft which were obviously spurious readings.

Lots of others around FL450.

When there's a U-2 around, it's common to see it reporting FL600.

The Canbarra PR9 could fly well above FL600.

Once saw a picture from a PR9 showing it looking down on a U-2
