Tucson Tim,
I never said that the Starship was even close flying at Mach 1, it was never designed to fly that fast. I was referring to the pusher-prop design and how it might assist in higher speed thrust.

Larry Jacks,
I have not seen any information here that says it is impossible to get a prop driven plane past Mach 1. The fact that the noise level is almost intolerable is not the point. We aren’t talking practical or production, just possible. The question is, is it possible?
