American pilots during World War II and the process in which they developed a plane that could fly faster than the speed of sound. On Earth‚ the speed of sound at sea level - assuming an air temperature of 59 degrees Fahrenheit - is 761.2 miles per hour. In 1942 American pilot Robert Johnson almost died when his P47 Thunderbolt nearly reached the speed of sound. It was the fastest airplane of its time. Johnson pushed his plane full throttle at 30‚000 feet when he suddenly lost control; the nose tucked

Although there are three runways in operation during good weather‚ only two of them are used for arrivals‚ which imply that each arrival runway has an hourly capacity of 30 planes per hour. During the peak period‚ arrival rates generally range from 44.5 planes per hour to a little over 60 planes per hour. The FAA
