Speed Of Sound Pillows

The Speed of Sound

Hands across the water, hands across the sky...

Vinyl lover; Playing a vinyl is sometimes like time traveling. It trigger nostalgic memories, good vibes and often comes with a little wish to be able to go back then just for a moment in a speed of sound.

Perfect for Bell X-1 veterans, flight simulator gamers, Bell X1 model kit builders and American aviation enthusiasts. Also makes a cool Bell X-1 gift at Christmas and birthdays.

Speed is Relative

On March 2, 1969 at 15h40 min and 11 s, exactly, the "great white bird" Concorde number 001 took off from the Toulouse-Blagnac airfield. The Legend was born ! This design was created especially for the lovers of the mythical plane, The Famous Concorde.

October 14, 1947 is when Chuck Yeager broke the sound barrier. Today is October 14, and I love me some airplanes, so that's what today's design is all about.

"Chuck" Yeager. Portrait of Charles Elwood "Chuck" Yeager (1923-2020), the American who was the first to fly faster than the speed of sound. On 14 October 1947 Yeager flew a Bell X-1 aircraft at a speed of 1078 kilometres per hour at an altitude of 12,800 metres - equivalent to 1.015 times the speed of sound. Yeager had begun his career as a fighter pilot during World War II, destroying 13 enemy aircraft. He spent several years flying experimental aircraft, including the X-1. He then commanded fighter and test pilot units in Europe and America, eventually rising to the rank of Brigadier-General. Photograph of Yeager in a NF- 104 Starfighter aircraft in 1962.

Out Of Control Warning - deliberate shake on image, nothing is sharp but this adds to the drama. Available on over 90 products here at Redbubble Drop me a message if you would prefer a different background or a slight change in some way to enhance the product :-) I have set a black background on most items that needed a colour adding, I can soon change this for you For this shot I strapped my camera on to the top of my best tripod and then used everything I could to keep it still on the back seat of my Audi TT. I then drove round town using a long exposure to capture the movement in the lights from cars, other vehicles and street lights. There is movement, intentionally, in this image and it adds to the drama. By Pau...

OKAY, BOOMER.
