I’m still a little behind schedule from yesterday. Also: recent events.
So today I thought I’d do a couple of videos on the X-1.
“Frontiers of Flight: The Sound Barrier”.
(Here’s a higher quality version, but it feels like some has been cut off of this.)
“Bell X-1: Breaking the Sound Barrier”, from Deep Space TV. This is a little shorter and better quality.
Bonus: this is long, but…a 1991 interview with Gen. Yeager.
