@Belginator89 when flying at cranwell with air cadets on friday, a GR4 had come for servicing, and just before we left it launched and flew a circuit... on the second run of the runway the sound was trailing, as you've just said, and no sonic boom would suggest it was still subsonic :)
Fist off, for all you idiot who thing it is supersonic. YOU WOULD NOT HEAR IT UNTIL IT HAD FLOWN PAST!!! Duh, cuz it is quicker than the speed of sound. Secondly there is no chance of it being supersonic as supersonic flight is forbidden in the UK.
@LOUISVART Oh christ... here we go again. Breaking the sound barrier is ilegal inside UK airspace (unless in emergency) If you knew anything obut CAA rules you would know that. I too have seen a low pass and heard the aircraft after; this is because the aircraft is at 100 or so feet vertical and a few hundred horizontal from where you view it. Light travels faster than sound so of course you hear it after you see it. I hope I have solved your problem.
its not supersonic, but when it flies over you like that...its something else. At the Bmouth airshow he just slammed on the burners and went straight up into the clouds and didn't come back. Spectacular flying by the EF Typhoon pilots
just to point out something obvious... when you break the sound barrier, you are travelling faster than sound. this means the aircraft would pass you before you hear any noise from it.
in this video, you can clearly hear the engines before the aircraft passes the camera. this is NOT supersonic.
think of it as 2 trains, one labelled "aircraft" travelling at a reasonable 1/10 scale speed of 70mph, the other labelled "sound" at the same 1/10 scale speed of 76.8mph ... which one will arrive at the end of the line first? ... sound because it is faster.
i shouldnt need to give any other layman examples of how sound is faster than subsonic travel.
if you go faster than sound, you cannot be heard until after you have passed.
@pInGu1337 the difference is in subsonic you hear the aircraft before it passes, continuing after it passes. in supersonic you do not hear the aircraft until after it has passed.
the doppler effect - sound moves a constant rate, it possible to "bend" sound by travelling fast, therefore sound in front of the passing object will be higher in pitch, descending in pitch as the object passes.
go faster than sound, you will pass the frontline of the doppler, thus no sound heard ahead of the object.
But this is only if the plane flies directly "through" you. The more distance you get, the more distance the sound has to travel. If you are for example 1km away, than the plane passes you and hear the sound 3 sec laters (if he is exactly supersonic). If he is not supersonic u will maybe here it 2 sec later.
All i said is, that if you are not very very very close to the plane, u can not tell by the sound if it is supersonic or not.
@pInGu1337 no you can tell, the noise of the aircraft going supersonic will always come through no matter how loud the aircraft purly because of the unique noise it makes, it sounds so much different to the sound of the aircraft it will stand out like dogs bollocks, believe me i have had many many aircraft break the sound barrier in a dive over my house when i was a kid you can tell the difference. It's sort of sounds like a bomb going off in mid flight and you know when you hear it.
Supersonic flights at UK airshows were banned after a DH aircraft flying above Mach 1broke up in mid-air at an air show back in the 50s or 60s (they initially and incorrectly thought the speed might be a significant factor). The aircraft wreckage landed in the crowd killing many.
Also, given the emerging industrial, military, and overall economic power of China, I do feel the the current primacy of Western military aircraft is, truly, soon to be eclipsed. Chinese graduates in engineering et al, appear to be the elite of the elite at the moment; watch this space. However, looking at some of the Chinese aircraft rolling off the production line, one does get the feeling that they are pinching US and UK design and technology ideas? Great vid 891c12. Best wishes.
They don't show you just how good this plain really is, at air shows due to restrictions. I've seen it doing some crazy flying maneuvers near where I live, close to where they build them.
I live not to far from RAF Conningsby where the first squadron recieved the EUROFIGHTER and damn when these boys/girls take off they literally front wheel leaves the ground kick in afterburner and go vetical and then its loud.
i go upto to whitby in the summer and theres American F15s that fly around, one morning they flew just about the tree tops and the caravan shrook, i went out and another went over, they came back round and banked their wings and flew off :D,, that is what i call a good morning hahaha
Lol ! i can remember going to skegness in the Caravan , about 10 in the morning ( i was still asleep ) and this tornado went roaring over , i jumped up , hit my head on a cupboard and then saw two orange lights dissapearing into the distance , and those F-15's are based at RAF Lakenheeath i think :)
i not too sure the F15s are based there, Whitby is just south of Middlesbrough, i think the planes fly missions in the North Sea,, i can also see training aircraft flying around the area some times :)
Ahhhh ok :D , i live up north in yorkshire so we rarely see any RAF aircraft :( although theres usualy a Army Air Corps Lynx that flies over just about every 3 days , but once the red arrows flew over 4 times in one week because they were doing some training near to where i live , over the moore's or something
i live in Hull and hardly ever seen RAF aircraft too, the red arrows did a show in whitby a few years ago, i will have to do a video of the pictures that i took, theres some quite goods ones :)
If your gonna go take a Cagoole or something because almost every time i've been its started out peeing it down and then turned into glorious sun shine in the afternoon :D
Lol , nice :D i've only ever been to one sort of Race track its Crofts or something , not the dog show xD and i got to ride round the track in a Skyline which was nice ^^
yeahh ive heard of croft, i was at donnington and have been to quite a few race tracks,, east midlands airport is right next to the track and were we was sat the planes were flying right over our heads :D
Nice lol ! , i live just down the road from the train station and when i was like 6 my dad used to take me on the train to manchester airport and just watch the planes for ages lol xD
hahaha, we was in the waiting area at manchester when we went on hoilday and was watching 747s landing and coming into the gates Their MASSIVE !!! lol
People say that when a sonic boom happens at that low cameras will explode but if you watch the mythbusters episode when they did the sonic boom to make glass crack/break it WILL prove you wrong
@rors666: Well, but certainly not while flying too near to the audience. No organizer wants to get prosecuted for being responsible for blast injuries. And certainly the organizer got a special permission and had to take care to follow strict rules for those flights.
@Mishinima: FAA regulations tell otherwise. Supersonic overland flights are not allowed. It's possible to get a waiver by an operator/controller but unless it's not a special military training or test area no plane is allowed to fly supersonic. Exeptions are military necessities like interception flights and such, but I doubt air shows are among those necessities. If the air field is in such a special area then these speeds may be allowed, though.
@Mishinima: Both video links demonstrate the Prandtl-Glauert effect but not a sonic boom. The vapor is an effect that only shows local supersonic air flows along the plane. But the planes certainly fly rather close to sonic speed.
@albedoshader if he was to go super sonic over all that he would damn near blow everyones eardrums, and he would literally shatter the windows on the cars!! and he is going too slow to be super sonic. probably 200-400 at the most
Not supersonic as said,not even transsonic, the clouds are created by the moisture in the air and the pressure created by the jet moving through the air at certain speeds and angles...have you ever looked out of the window while taking off in a commercial airliner on a damp day, even at 200 knots there are clouds being created by the wings..
Even just by looking at the flyby you can see that the A/C is subsonic. The vapors created is due to the humid weather conditions, and nothing else. Try to know your stuff before posting something like this, cause many pEople will "eat you alive". You can start with changing the header of this video.
As someone who has spent a few years in the RAF and has worked for a well know Civillian Aircraft company firstly let me say the fellow who says supersonic over land is illegal is indeed right! Secondly when an aircraft goes supersonic there is a deafing boom which sounds as though a couple of hundred pounds of TNT is going off. Thirdly when there are air shows the piolts are told they can only go a certain speed which is less then supersonic (500 mph) this is for safety reasons.
@ckckckm Actually you're wrong, its a common myth that glass breaks becuase of a sonic boom, infact it doesn't, search for the mythbsters program about it.
Nah i disagree i think the raptor will live up to its hype have u seen the specs its i just wanna know how the yanks were able to design it although i think that the Ef would give it a good run for its money not that i would want it to ofcourse. :D thanks for the comments
Hahaha, all your credibility went out the window with this statement! "I've seen a few videos of each now"
Videos? you must be one of those professional plane raters! Classic!
I've seen the Typhoon twice, at Farnborough air show this year and at Riat AFB last year while on business for Pratt & Whitney. I see the Raptor on a near daily basis.
You might want to get out from behind that computer, YouTube is not the way to decide which $100 million dollar+ plane is better. Really.
Oh I understand you now, so when you go the shows, eat hotdogs and take photos, it means you ARE actually becoming a fighter pilot. I bet you go StarTrek shows dressed as Spock?
I meant that looking at videos of them flying, some at high altitude by a chase plane (where you can't stand with a wide mouthful of hotdog), you can see different aspects of performance. Standing near one doesnt mean a thing.
I have seen both in flesh but not as much as I have viewed on video, simple - Idiot.

Anyway, you don't get it. Since the plane is not going right through you, there is always a differnce.
When you look up in the air and watch planes, you will always hear the sound BEHIND the plane - and they are not supersonic.... .
So i a plane passes you in 100 meter distance, even though you hear the sound later, it doesn't mean it's supersonic.
Now learn some manners... .

ya right that was supersonic at that low you would of seen ppl's head exploding from the noise.

No you wouldn't. Supersonic flight at air shows was common until the early 70's.

As someone who has spent a few years in the RAF and has worked for a well know Civillian Aircraft company firstly let me say the fellow who says supersonic over land is illegal is indeed right! Secondly when an aircraft goes supersonic there is a deafing boom which sounds as though a couple of hundred pounds of TNT is going off. Thirdly when there are air shows the piolts are told they can only go a certain speed which is less then supersonic (500 mph) this is for safety reasons.

THE ROLL IN THE TURN IS TO BLEED OFF SPEED WHILE ON THE BURNERS! NOT SUPERSONIC IN A MILLION YEARS, prob no more that a 3-350 knotts

That shit ain't supersonic... LAME

Rather than going into the science behind the water vapor and that, i'll put it simply.
A sonic boom is a boom, not just delayed sound of an aircraft.
More to the point. Flying supersonically over land is ILLEGAL.

Not supersonic, no way. that at 00:14 is cos of lots of moisture in the air being compressed as it goes over the wing.

a sonic boom vapor cloud is more of a disk, while what is in this video is what you wrote in your comment, so yes, not supersonic, not by a long shot

darbidoo111 2 years ago
not allowed to break barrier unless specificaly authorised to do so over land and obvious its not by looking at it

Not supersonic because he would never in a million years be able to pull off those manouvers if he was

no sound barrier ....
jNS278 2 years ago
There is always a sound barrier, the plane is just not breaking it retard. You mean to say "no vapour cloud" ?

excellent video but just to let you know it wasnt supersonic

This comment has received too many negative votes show
No but the noise you hear sounds like its broke the sound barrier.

fast, but not supersonic.
If it was supersonic, you would not hear it coming

They are not alowed to fly supersonic over UK mainland
ckckckm 3 years ago
why?
Jaymalamin 3 years ago
Because of the rules for the UK airspace. Besides, we`d be all replacing windows and other items if they was allowed.
ckckckm 3 years ago
it would deafen if it went supersonic withing 1/2 a mile.
they're not allowed to go supersonic over land below 18000 ft unless the country it at war.
p.s. the height may not be accurate

@ckckckm Actually you're wrong, its a common myth that glass breaks becuase of a sonic boom, infact it doesn't, search for the mythbsters program about it.

And it isn't supersonic. Jets are not allowed to travel at supersonic speed over land unless it is required by a matter of national security.

it is supersonic for european standart ;)

I dont care what the Yanks say, I've seen a few videos of each now and the Typhoon can turn on a sixpence and accelerates far stronger.
If you want a slow wallowing Cobra 24/7 or endles slow immelmans the F-22's for you.
I even think a su-30MKI or, 37 if eye to eye would tear it a new one.
I think apart from stealth, we might be seeing a bit of propeganda about the Raptor.
I'm sure its very good, but not upto is "Hype"
Lateralthink 3 years ago 7
Nah i disagree i think the raptor will live up to its hype have u seen the specs its i just wanna know how the yanks were able to design it although i think that the Ef would give it a good run for its money not that i would want it to ofcourse. :D thanks for the comments

I've seen the specs too and I suspect they are "Rose coloured"
Only kidding (just couldn't resist the joke once I'd thought of it).
Cheers.

How come your on here, does your shuttle launch not happen for a few more days?
Lateralthink 3 years ago
Hahaha, all your credibility went out the window with this statement! "I've seen a few videos of each now"
Videos? you must be one of those professional plane raters! Classic!
I've seen the Typhoon twice, at Farnborough air show this year and at Riat AFB last year while on business for Pratt & Whitney. I see the Raptor on a near daily basis.
You might want to get out from behind that computer, YouTube is not the way to decide which $100 million dollar+ plane is better. Really.

Oh I understand you now, so when you go the shows, eat hotdogs and take photos, it means you ARE actually becoming a fighter pilot. I bet you go StarTrek shows dressed as Spock?
I meant that looking at videos of them flying, some at high altitude by a chase plane (where you can't stand with a wide mouthful of hotdog), you can see different aspects of performance. Standing near one doesnt mean a thing.
I have seen both in flesh but not as much as I have viewed on video, simple - Idiot.
