Untrue. Supersonic aircraft are very noisy, the only indication that the aircraft passes through the sound barrier is a slight increase in acceleration, the Mach meter number, and an announcement by the pilot.

A sentence with the word supersonic?
The Supersonic Transport, or SST has been discontinued due to ongoing mechanical problems. Modern Air-force fighter jets are capable of traveling at supersonic speeds.
What sound is produced when the shock wave formed at the nose of a aircraft traveling at supersonic speeds reaches the ground?
like thunder
Is air resistance fluid friction?
At sub-sonic speeds, air resistance is fluid friction. At supersonic speeds, it is not.
What is supersonic sound waves?
That's a sonic boom. Sound waves are never supersonic in themselves, objects can be supersonic ... which causes a pressure wave (which moves at "sonic" speeds) and which can be heard (firing a gun will do it).
Do aircrafts fly at supersonic speeds at air shows?
if you're at a good show, they do.

Why aircraft that travel at supersonic speeds cannot be heard on the ground?
The properties of air flow at supersonic speeds is different than for subsonic speeds. So the design of the shape of the airplane and the inlets for the engines have to be different in order for it to fly at supersonic speeds.
How can you use Supersonic in a sentence?
At this rate, we will reach supersonic speeds within seconds.
What is supersonic and hypersonic?
Supersonic and hypersonic are speeds. Supersonic means faster than the speed of sound, and hypersonic means very much faster.
Does a supersonic aircraft produce a sonic boom at all times?
Yes, at all times that it is traveling supersonic.
What can't the harrier do?
The Harrier can't fly supersonic in level flight or fly long distances.
Can eruptions eject debris and gases at supersonic speeds?
Yes, it is true!!!
What was the flight faster then speed called?
There was not a special name for the first flight that went faster than the speed of sound. However, when a plane does go faster than sound, it said to be traveling at supersonic speeds.
