1:18 X-1 Experimental Plane #8802 The Military Museum Collection
On Tuesday morning, October 14th, 1947 history was made when a B-29 took off from Muroc Army Air Field. At 10:30am, X-1 #46-062 dropped from the B-29 and rapidly climbed to an altitude of 40,000 feet, soon after bursting through the sound barrier at a speed of Mach 1.06. The news of this first manned flight to achieve this record was kept secret until December 22nd of that year.
