NASA F/A-18 research aircraft taking off from Ellington Field in Houston, Texas, USA for a quiet supersonic research flight off the coast of Galveston, as part of the QSF18 flight series. The F/A-18 then climbed over 50, 000 feet over the Gulf of Mexico, where it performed the quiet supersonic dive manoeuvre.
