A MiG-21PF is capable of going 1,238 km/h - the speed of sound. A RZ-1 A-wing is also capable of going over the speed of sound: 1,300 km/h, in fact.

It's the fact that she's in an aircraft, a fighter, and she's hurtling forwards as fast as it can go and she can feel the vibrations of the engines and there is nothing else in the universe but this.
(damn straight this is better than sex)
