It isn't due to the aircraft breaking the sound barrier or its velocity necessarily, it depends on humidity and the aerodynamic effects around the aircraft. I have seen this first-hand at airshows where aircraft have been flying well below Mach 1. It still looks very cool!

Go do your research! When the sound barrier is breached, there will be a cone-shaped-cloud-like thingy dragged from the tail of the plane with a certain angle that's related to the speed of the aircraft. There are no air that we breath contains no moisture, so it can be formed anywhere on earth! Once the aircraft slows down the cone disappears, and maybe not all pictures with planes and clouds are sonic boom pictures! Not all nerds and geeks agree it seems!
