The experimental XB-1 aircraft, made by US company Boom Supersonic, flew faster than the speed of sound on 28 January. The achievement is the first time any civil aircraft has gone supersonic over the continental US – and another step toward the possible return of supersonic commercial aviation.

They repaved the street this morning. I'm sure the avg speed of people entering and leaving the 'hood will increase at least 20 mph since it's so smooth now. That'll put it up about 50-60 mph.
