What are those spots in a jets flame trail?
They are called "dancing diamonds" and are formed when the pilot initiates the afterburners and are formed when the exhaust (flames) travel at above supersonic speeds.
Can afterburners be used in cars?
Yes
How do you use afterburners in Microsoft Flight Simulator X?
To use afterburners in Microsoft Flight Simulator X, apply full throttle.
Does the B-1B have to take off with afterburners?
The B-1B Lancer typically uses afterburners for takeoff, especially when operating at maximum weight or in high-altitude, hot weather conditions. Afterburners provide the necessary thrust to achieve the required takeoff performance in these scenarios. However, in certain circumstances, such as lighter loads or optimal conditions, the aircraft can take off without using afterburners to conserve fuel.
How long can an F-15 fly with it's afterburners on?
The obvious answer is, until it runs out of fuel. If immediately after takeoff the pilot used his/her afterburners they would have about 7 minutes max.
What is the average speed of a fighter jet?
Most modern fighter jets max out at about 2 or 2 and a half times the speed of sound. Most aircraft however cruise at subsonic speeds (under the speed of sound) so that they don't need to use afterburners which guzzle down fuel. That's changing however with the F-22 and latest Russian fighters being able to sustain supersonic flight (supercruise) without using afterburners.
How do fighter jets work?
The fly and then they shoot (:
How fast is a F-22 Raptor?

How fast is the F-22?
It's specified Max. Speed is mach 2.25 (1,500 mph, 2,410 km/h). It is the first fighter aircraft to achieve supersonic speeds without afterburners. (Mach 1+ without afterburners).
What does a Concorde jet not have that a regular jet does have?
Overdrive afterburners, and supersonic flight capability- It is, alas, obsolete.
Why do rockets go to space not jets?
Jets need air in order to work. Look at the jet engines on an airliner, and you'll notice that the front of the engine is wide open . . . to take in large gulps of air and mix it with the jet fuel. There's no air in space, so jets don't work there.
Who is is better jets or giants?
Jets.
