Sound Barrier Broken



The Bell X-1 "Glamorous Glennis"
in Washington's National Air & Space Museum

The first flight at faster than the speed of sound occurred
on 14 October 1947. The aircraft was the Bell X-1 and the
pilot was Captain Charles Yeager.

Technically the speed of sound had probably been broken
before that by several Second World War aircraft. Some
British and American fighters may have unintentionally
exceeded the speed of sound in an evasive dive and there
are unconfirmed reports that the German Me 262 jet
fighter managed to break the sound barrier.
