The sophisticated white aircraft became the first independent jet -air machine to break the sound barrier on Tuesday, tearing tens of thousands of feet from the Mohabe Desert and the crowd of fun spectators.
XB-1 aircraft According to Boom Supersonic and Live Video of the Test Flight, Mach 1.05 was accelerated within 11 minutes from takeoff.
The flight at Mohabu Aerospace Port in Mohab, California was done when the company was working to revive a super -speed passenger trip that died of Concorde on Lake Anglo more than 20 years ago.
The boom will then focus on the overtaking passenger aircraft. This is said to carry 80 passengers while moving at about twice the speed of today’s sub -speed passenger trader.
“The XB-1’s super-speed flight indicates that passengers have arrived,” said the boom founder and CEO Break Shawl. “A small -talented dedicated engineer’s small band has previously been billed with the government.”
The aircraft that flew for the first time in March is made of almost completely lightweight carbon fiber. We support landing using the expansion reality vision system. This is because the long nose and angle approach may make the pilot look more difficult.
“The future of aviation is here,” said Amy Marino Sportwart, president and CEO of the National Aviation Association. “Not only has a faster and better commercial flight, but the boom proves that it is sustainable.”
The boom is one of several companies that are paying attention to super -speed passenger trips. Such a new service may fly in the Atlantic Ocean and face the same hurdle as the concorded concorded road for the sound boom caused by it.
According to Congress research services, when airplanes fly faster than sound velocity, they usually have about 760 mph (1,223 kph) near the sea surface, but when they differ depending on the temperature, altitude, and other conditions, the sound boom is heard on the ground. Masu.
According to NASA, when the ultrasonic surface passes through the air, the molecule pushes out the molecules with a large force, forming a shock wave that occurs in the water.
Tuesday flight occurred in the same airspace in 1947 Charles “Chuck” Jaeger I controled the orange bullet-shaped Bell X-1 rocket airplane and became the first person to break the sound barrier.
