As soon as you enter Fly 'n' Buy you will see this model of the Bell X-1 flying overhead. This is the aircraft that Chuck Yeager flew to break the sound barrier.
The calendar shows the date that Chuck Yeager broke the sound barrier. October 14th, 1947 is that date.
The clock above the calendar has a cracked glass face with it's hands frozen in time at 10:26. So it was October 14th, 1947 at 10:26 am that Chuck Yeager broke the sound barrier.
Look for more cool details such as these in future posts!
