Just to clarify, I hear 3/4 and I assume the pirate is the LazyTown song. Because whenever I see a pirate anything, that stupid hilarious song pops into my head.

minor correction, not to be one of those akshually guys, but because i just found out about it a few months ago and thought it was pretty interesting...

but those waves aren't because it's breaking the sound barrier, rather it's ramping up to break the sound barrier. once it actually BREAKS the sound barrier those waves basically disappear. as planes get closer and closer to mach 1, air sort of builds up in front of the plane like reams of paper until it the plane literally tears through it all. i've been told that planes start getting pretty rough right about 80-85% of mach 1, but then as soon as it actually hits mach 1 the turbulence almost completely disappears.

anyway, last week on veteran's day i talked to my daughter (9 years old) about my dad who sailed on the USS Hornet. we have a lot of military in our family but none of us really talk about it much so it was cool to talk to her about it when she's getting at that age where that kind of stuff is new and exciting.
