Fighter jets breaking the Sound Barrier (16 pics)

Posted in Pictures 19 Jun 2009 / 53684 views

The white halo you can see on the pics is called the Prandtl–Glauert singularity (sometimes referred to as a "vapor cone"). It is the point at which a sudden drop in air pressure occurs, and is generally accepted as the cause of the visible condensation cloud that often surrounds an aircraft traveling at transonic speeds. That’s quite impressive.

Dude I have a suggestion...
On a single page, could you make an index of all the titles of the posts with some descriptions...

So for example if I am searchin for something to share with someone I can scroll through the links and select them easily....

you can name it "Index"

thanks!
