The fastest plane in the world

nice indeed... but for now is just an unpiloted aircraft launched from another plane... like Boeing... and his flying time is about 10 seconds and after that it is planned to crush in the ocean... but very nice indeed:)

Unbelievable isn't it?! Mach 9.6 to be exact, and thats around 7,000mph!! thats about 2 MILES per SECOND! actually the X-43A has done its final flight. it was only doing unmanned flight tests for research into an alternative to rocket power for space access vehicles. all this happened in 2004 i believe. a fact about the X-43A "ScramJet" vehicle...its only 12 feet long! heres a link to the NASA webpage with all the info on the ScramJet. http://www.nasa.gov/missions/research/daily_updates.html

That's amazing speed.That means New York to California in less than thirty minutes!!What is it used for? Chaseing U F O's ? Around the globe in four hours tell me more, where did you get this info?I can't even imagine a pilot having much input to the flight.

sooo kool(",)
