Chuck Yeager broke the "Sound Barrier" in the Bell X-1.
12 years later we were sending humans into space and flying rocket planes that would eventually go Mach 6.7.
15 years later we were routinely flying Mach 3+ in air breathing aircraft.
At least one BITOG member has flown 2x faster than that X-1 flight.
