Title: Sound Barrier
Post by: Bush Tucker Man on November 20, 2003, 15:10:16

Browsing around 'Webshots' this afternoon after loading up the latest additions and found an absolutely amazing photo ('Sound Barrier Breach') of the shockwave as a F-18 - 'Hornet' ( I think)

I presume it's not been 'doctored' if the comments are to be believed

It is an F-18.  You have to wonder though given that an ac travelling at that speed at that distance is likely to deafen/seriously damage the hearing of the onlookers.  Also given it was taken by the 'photo officer' it is a fairly poor quality image.

Must have been fun though to fly :twisted:

Where can I buy one of those sound barrier things and how well do they work if you put one between yourself and SWMBO?
