It's actually caused by low pressure areas which form either above the wings at subsonic speeds during fast turning or lifting manuevers or at near supersonic (trans-sonic) speeds behind the aircraft. It's very common on military fighters where there is a lot of speed, weight and high G-force involved. It's more common in high humidity conditions but can also happen in low humidity enviroments if the jet is pulling hard enough.
What are the considerations for aircraft's colour scheme?
Remember that when an aircraft is pushing the sound barrier, there is a lot of air pressure on the leading edges of the plane. Immediately behind this high pressure area will be a lower air pressure area, especially above the wings because the distance the air has to travel is greater (thus the molecules are separated farther apart) and the lower air pressure sucks the moisture out of the air momentarily.
the best figher plane in the world?
The same thing happens on a much larger scale when a low-pressure storm moves in and the result is clouds and rain. Low pressure = clouds and high pressure = clear.
when the food and beverages service was started on aircraft?
Jets can pull so much vacuum at speed that it's not uncommon for the entire plane to be covered in a fog just before it breaks the sound barrier.

something strange is going on?
i think you're refering to the video of an airforce jet flying next to an aircraft carrier and you can see a circular cloud form around it.hi everybody..where i can find free 747-400 & Airbus 320 3d model?
that cloud is water vapor being hit by the various physical forces surounding the jet, most specifically, it's the sonic wave catching up with the forward pressure caused by the jet and smashing the air/water in the air into a cloud vapor.
Is it possible for pilots to erase recordings in a cvr?
at least that's what my physics teacher told me.
It's actually a very rare phenomenon that happens at high humidity. Behind the shock wave is a low pressure area. When this low pressure area hits the air, the air instantly cools (think boyles law or such) and then the water vapor condesnse. When the next shock wave hits it, the air warms and evaproates the water.
is 40000 worth getting a helicopter commercial license?
means you have broken into Mr. Cleans air space. Shame on youWhat do you call the airplane director sticks?
Simple terms. Compressed air will not hold as much water vapour as uncompressed air.The compressed air from the shock wave literally squeezes the water vapour out and it becomes visible for a fraction of a second.
That is the sound barrier, you cannot see it until you catch up with it.
the plane is accelerating through it>
