Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Return of the X planes - seeking supersonic flight without the boom. QueSST [ link to www.bbc.com (secure)] "the X-59 is designed to create a quiet sonic boom at the test point of Mach 1.4 (1,074 mph) at 55,000ft (16,800m), which is in the range a commercial aircraft is likely to fly" Last Edited by JustmeTX on 03/31/2023 11:36 AMJustme |

Quoting: Tangy I would think they would test it in Houston. NASA, Ellington Field, etc. The video above was taken over Galveston. The sonic booms were very quiet. Last Edited by JustmeTX on 03/31/2023 11:52 AMJustme |

Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Re: Return of the X planes - seeking supersonic flight without the boom. QueSST If that forward looking camera ever fails, they are screwed. Can't see out the front of the plane. I assume they have some extra cameras. But hit a flock of birds or bugs or whatever, and I guess they would have to try and land with instruments.
