SkydiveJack 1 #9 December 20, 2005 I’m curious about something and I hope someone out there can help. I remember reading a book many many years ago about Kittengers jump. I recall it stating that he approached very close to the speed of sound but never did go Mach 1. Then around ten years ago I saw Kittenger on some Discovery Channel program saying he did go supersonic. Does anyone out there know of any verification of him going supersonic from a source other than Kittenger or the TV documentary producers? Thanks!
