F18 Hornet nearly breaks sound barrier flying meters above the ground!
form when the air is high in humidity and as an aircraft APPROACHES the speed of sound. Just because a compression is visible doesn't mean the aircraft is meeting or exceeding mach 1.
I don't know where this video was taken but if it was at an airshow in the U.S. pilots are not permitted to break the barrier in front of a crowd. Sonic booms can wreak all sorts of havoc with our physiology. Not something the Government wants to be responsible for.
this flight was at fleetweek in San Francisco. He did not go supersonic, went about 600 mph, no sonic boom but the jet was loud. I was about 1000 yards away on shore when he went by. Awesome.

supersonic, just below. It's illegal in the US to go supersonic in populated areas.

The pilot here is also capable of doing the same thing to avoid a sonic boom.
Sorry to tell but there was no sonic boom. Actually, there are two sonic booms in less then a second which this video lacks.
mmm just tell me when did you heard a big BOOm in this video?this F18 is not supersonic.Naive people believe that moisture cone equal supersonic.wrong baby
