As an aircraft reaches the speed of sound, shock waves build up, creating increase in drag, loss of lift, and loss of control and a sonic explosion is heard.
A plane in flight would have more kinetic energy than a person running in a race. This is because kinetic energy is directly proportional to an object's mass and velocity, and a plane's mass and velocity are much greater than that of a person.
There was not a special name for the first flight that went faster than the speed of sound. However, when a plane does go faster than sound, it said to be traveling at supersonic speeds.
The Concorde's body expands slightly during flight due to heating from air friction. As the plane travels at high speeds, the friction with the air causes the metal structure to heat up, leading to thermal expansion. This increase in length is anticipated and accounted for in the design of the aircraft.
its simple the sound barrier is broken :D
it vibrates
The plane she was flying on her final flight disappeared, undoubtedly under the ocean.

They have not found Amelia Earhart's plane yet. However, if they did, they could compare flight numbers from the records with the plane's flight number. Or if it was a more recent flight, they could recover the Blackbox: An orange computer module containing vital information about everything that happens on a plane.
No planes are faster than light.
The number is assigned a new number for another plane's use. ex. when 9/11 happend all the flight 175s were changed to 163 160 177 181
When thrust and drag are equal, the plane's speed remains constant. The forces are balanced, and the plane will maintain its current velocity without accelerating or decelerating. This state is known as "steady level flight."
it vibrates
it has engines
You need to be 18 to get behind the wheel of a plane in flight training
Flight departure is usually refered to as the time when the plane or flight leaves. For example, if the plane left at 4:30 in the afternoon, the flight departure time would be 4:30pm.
