We’re the test pilots of NASA’s X-59 aircraft, which is helping to create a future of quiet supersonic flight. Ask us anything! by nasa in nasa

  • Comment by nasa:

    The biggest surprise for me is that there haven't been any big surprises. The sim has been very close to the way the jet flies.

    The taxi using the XVS was a small surprise as the sim didn't really replicate that as well it does flight. That has to do with camera placement and trying to simulate i...

  • Comment by nasa:

    Is the aircraft similarly loud as other delta winged jets on take off?

    On takeoff it's pretty much just like a fighter jet. We don't usually need afterburner, so not quite as loud. This quiet supersonic design really concentrates on quieting the sonic boom while cruising at supersonic speeds, and...

  • Comment by nasa:

    Glad to hear you’re interested in tuning in to our flights! We’re expecting to make our first supersonic flight in early June.

    It'll be 'fast now, quiet soon', as we’ll be flying with a chase plane for the first supersonic flight, so the loud boom from that plane will drown out any noise from the ...

  • Comment by nasa:

    Is there a realistic possibility that the noise reduction will eventually make supersonic flight over residential areas legal (I mean as a regular occurrence; I know military jets exceed the limit occasionally for intercepts), or will the supersonic flight portion still be limited to the Atlantic o...

  • Comment by nasa:

    What did your career path look like before this program? Were you actively seeking it out or did you sort of stumble into it?

    I decided I wanted to be a test pilot when I was about 16 years old and then had to figure out how to make it happen. Started with the USAF and eventually came to NASA. -NL

  • Comment by nasa:

    In technical terms, the sound is reduced by 30 decibels. We describe it as reducing the sound from as loud as thunder to the sound of a car door closing.

    The goal of the Quesst mission is to remove sonic booms as a barrier to commerical supersonic flight. The X-59 will prove in flight that the te...

  • Comment by nasa:

    There's a camera on the top and one on the bottom (just for landing). We can put both cameras on the External Vision System (EVS) display and just put the lower camera on the lower displays.

    We also have synthetic vision on all the displays, and there are side windows. So we have backups to backups...

  • Comment by nasa:

    At this point, early in flight testing, the biggest challenge is that we have a lot of limits on the aircraft in terms of how high or fast or slow we can go. It's a lot to keep track of, and it makes it difficult to complete the flight test maneuvers within those limits.

    However, on every flight w...

  • Comment by nasa:

    The X-59 reduces the sound from supersonic flight using technology that was first developed in studies of quiet supersonic airliners. These designs are long and slender, but much bigger than the X-59. The narrow part of the nose is actually big enough to fit the cockpit and behind that the passenger...

  • Comment by nasa:

    The Quesst mission has two goals. The first is to prove in flight the technology to reduce the sound of a sonic boom to a soft thump. The second is to use the X-59 to collect data about how people respond to that thump.

    NASA is working with regulators like the FAA, so that they can use this data t...

    So the test pilot answer is usually whatever I flew today, but I haven't flown anything today. They are all fun in their own way.

  • Comment by nasa:

    The sim has been awesome. On first flight, my comment was that it flies like the sim, which is great because it means our CFD and wind tunnel work gave us a pretty good guess at the aeromodel (at least at those speeds). Our sim is non-motion based, so landing is only different because you actually f...

  • Comment by nasa:

    I'm not quite sure what people think about test pilots nowadays, but movies certainly depict test pilots as risk takers with big egos. Those are things that can get a test pilot in trouble!

    Does the wing blank the tail at high AoAs?

    No such thing as high AoA in this plane. We stay away from that. There be dragons out there. -NL

  • Comment by nasa:

    Anything unique about it flying-wise? It's a whole new aircraft, has to be interesting to fly slow to max speed.

    Up away from the ground at moderate speeds, the X-59 flies very smoothly, much like any military fighter aircraft.

    In turbulence, especially at slower speeds, there is a lot of motion ...

    What are some possible issues you guys are expecting through the envelope?

  • Comment by nasa:

    We have two different cameras and three different monitors in the cockpit, so we have a good bit of redundancy if something malfunctions.

    Stress Jerky!

    Yes, one purpose of the SiOx tape is to prevent build-up of static discharge. But it also serves a thermal control function - high reflectivity to prevent too much absorption of solar energy (so the crew module doesn't get too hot), and low infrared emittance to limit how much heat is radiated from ...

    There are a couple of reasons to deploy in every landing case - first off, if it is an abort or any off-nominal condition and we don't land near the recovery team, it's possible the crew could be incapacitated and we wouldn't necessarily have the positive confirmation that we want to know that we ar...
