Apparently someone didn`t like the NAVY poster... How could you not like an aircraft carrier and a neat slogan?

On this day in 1997, at the Black Rock Desert in Nevada, man broke the sound barrier on land for the very first time (officially). To remind us of that awesome achievement, here's an interview from BBC World with the hero of the day himself, RAF Wing Commander Andy Green.

(yes, it's iPlayer, but it's BBC World Service, so it should be available everywhere)

Also...

763.035 mph / 1227.986 kph.

 

[IceBone]

Is the interview supposed to be audio only?

 

[MWF]

Ice, the BBC's World Service is radio so I'm fairly sure your answer is "yes".

 

[vikiradTG2007]

It's a radio interview.

 

[IceBone]

Oh, I was wondering why I was looking at the same "now playing" screen for 2 minutes.
