The Cirrus stall-crash has resulted in related discussions about the relative safety of steep bank angles while descending. Paul says step bank angles can be made with relative impunity from stalls if descending. With due respect I join the dissenting side.
In November 1945, a British jet fighter the Gloster Meteor set a new official world speed record of 606.25 mph. It was two years later before the sound barrier was broken by an American aircraft the Bell X-1. Test pilot 'Chuck' Yeager named the aircraft 'Glamorous Glennis' after his wife.
How fast does thrust ssc go? Thrust SSC achieved the World Land Speed Record, on 15 October  1997. It became the first car to officially break the sound barrier  when it reached a speed of 1,228 km/h (7 â¦ 63 mph).asically thrust has to be powerful enough to get the plane to take-off speed, or it'll stay on the ground. And then you'll want a b â¦ it more than that to get a decent climbing rate out of it. Exactly how much it'll need in numbers is impossible to say, as it'll depend on the aircraft.
