  Obviously a great publicity shot of some of the team involved with breaking the sound barrier over Muroc AAF in Oct 1947 in front of Bell X-1 No. 2 (46-063) and the B-29 mother ship. Think then-Captain Chuck Yeager is second from right (kneeling). Wow.

  This is the Bell X-1 46-062 (No. 1) nicknamed "Glamorous Glennis" and flown by Chuck Yeager breaking thru the sound barrier in level flight over Muroc (later Edwards AFB) on 14 Oct 47.
