The F-14 was a pivotal aircraft in many ways; seeing and feeling its jet blast in person is an experience like no other. The 1986 film helped capture this sensation, sharing “The Spirit of Aviation” with millions of people.

Boom is supersonic. On Jan. 28, 2025 at 8:31am PST / 16:31 GMT, XB-1 broke the sound barrier.
Chief Test Pilot Tristan “Geppetto” Brandenburg safely and successfully achieved supersonic speed in XB-1, the first civil supersonic jet made in America.
✅New top speed: Mach 1.122 (652 KTAS)
✅New max altitude: 35,290 ft.
✅Flight time: 34 minutes
✅Airspace: Bell X-1 Supersonic Corridor and the Black Mountain Supersonic Corridor in Mojave, CA
XB-1 demonstrates that Boom has the team, technology, and tools to deliver supersonic commercial travel with Overture, cutting travel times in half.
Congratulations to the Boom team on making aviation history!
