No, this image doesnt give you navy's aircraft that just hatched from an egg, this is what happens when airoplane breaks the sound barrier. It's called Sonic Boom. Really cool picture indeed! I've added more of them inside this post.

It's not actually an illusion, is it?
It's not really an illusion, it has something to do with shock waves causing water vapor to concentrate on the deflagration cone.
Some cool videos of this phenomenon have been around on the Internet for some time. At least two of them are available on Google Video:
* F-14, the video slows down to show the formation of the vapor cone. Don't worry for your sound card, there is no sound on this video.
* F-18 (less impressive, but the cone is visible on both passes).
Very cool site, by the way!
The condensation cone is a Prandtl-Glauert singularity
Its not an illusion, its not an illusion. So what????? I wish u geeks would stop explaining everything. Namely TIMTOM!!! Who cares????????
jajajaja. that;s so cool man....
that is sooo cool, that is was cool!!!!! :)
cool. nice.
its plains breaking the sound barrier
hmmmmmm....
It actually looks like the plane is teleporting rather than hatching from an egg in the first one
It doesn't really look like an illusion, but it's still cool. Is that what happens when planes enter the triangle? lol
I've seen a short film once, where the pictures shown above are from.
This is real, no fake stuff.
The plane was on sea-level if i remember it correctly.
Was on a NAVAL film :)
Very cool to see the pics, nicejob!
How did they get the airplane in the egg in the first one? : P lol
hey! I like the answer if I don't know what it is! that is really cool! strange that it would do that.
cool. but its not an illusion
where are the illusions?
I dont care if it's not an illusion, it's still an amazing picture!
Imagine what it would feel like to do something like that!
