#Bell X-1 ##Faster Than the Speed of Sound The quest for breaking the sound barrier began in late 1945. Less than two years later, Charles "Chuck" Yeager became the first person to fly faster than the speed of sound, recording a speed of Mach 1.06 on October 14th, 1947. The aircraft that he flew on this record setting flight was built by Bell Aircraft Corporation. And it was designated X-1. ##The Model This is a 1:72 scale profile model of the Bell X-1. This model consists of five simple parts that can be printed on any 3D printer with at least a 160mm square build plate.
