MOJAVE, Calif. (WGHP) — Boom Supersonic broke the sound barrier again Monday, after a successful flight last month. On Feb. 10, Boom Supersonic performed another supersonic flight with its ...

To be effective the aircraft must be flying in the transonic regime, at lower supersonic speeds of around M1.1-1.3, because this broadens the trailing Mach shock-cone and makes it more susceptible ...

However, as Tristan Brandenburg explained, "The actual acceleration from subsonic to supersonic is fairly gradual. There is a phenomenon known as the transonic drag rise, in which the drag on the ...

Supersonic flight means breaking the sound barrier, but there are some myths as to what pilots actually feel at Mach 1. Here's the truth from experts.

This results in a greater blade cross-section becoming supersonic, meaning both the base and tip of the blade are moving at ultra-high speed.
