Not real hard when your 737-800 powers through 26,000 at 592 mph..in a climb? Wonder if that bird could break the sound barrier in a shallow dive....AMERICA !

If you hit the sound barrier in a dive in that bird, you should have called off that day.
 
This 747 may have gone supersonic in a fluke emergency dive.

".....a Boeing 747-100 going supersonic? Reports from 1991 suggest that this aircraft reached a speed of Mach 1.25 while rapidly descending due to a malfunction. The 747 had mysteriously banked 90 degrees to the right and was descending at an angle of 30-35 degrees for 10,000 feet. This 1.25 mach number was never confirmed (.98 was also reported) this could be the fastest a commercial Queen of the Skies has ever flown."

That would have been a wild ride. Boeing tested the frames to Mach 0.99 while in development.
 
Did you see the video of the crash in China earlier this year, you could see the sound ring around that bird.
That did not end up good.
