    I certainly understand the sound barrier thing, but what is this, nothing like breaking sound barrier.

    Dumping fuel?

    Politics is not about the pursuit of morality nor what's right or wrong
    Its about self interest at personal and national level often at odds with the above.
    Great politicians pursue the National interest and small politicians personal interests

      That is simply smoke being released. It can be in a variety of colors. It's for public air shows. The 1st pic shows a euro canard plane with what looks like rockets on wing tips , but they aren't rockets , they are smoke containers that can release smoke at pilots discretion. 2nd vid is Russian plane which has same setup but smoke dispenser can be on any hard point or attachment point on plane.
      It's simply to highlight planes movement for the watching people on the ground.

          Six Russian Su-34 Fullback bomber have just arrived in Syria. And this is the route they have likely flown to get there.
          http://theaviationist.com/2015/09/29...ived-in-syria/



          Six Sukhoi Su-34 aircraft have eventually arrived at Latakia to join the Russian contingent already there.

          Images allegedly shot around the al-Assad International Airport clearly show one Russian Fullback about to land at the airbase in western Syria where 28 Russian aircraft have arrived last week.

          Interestingly, a Russian Air Force Tu-154 using callsign RFF7085 could be tracked online on Flightradar24 during its flight to Latakia on Sept. 28, likely exposing the route followed by the six Su-34s trailing their accompanying Tu-154.

          As the below image shows, the aircraft flew in international airspace over the Caspian Sea, to Iran and entered Syrian airspace after flying over northern Iraq: did the Su-34s have all the required diplomatic clearances to fly north of Baghdad or did they simply “sneak” into Syria by hiding under the cover of the transport plane?

          Hard to say.

          Last week, US officials said that the first 28 Russian combat planes hid under the radar signature on the larger transport aircraft, in an attempt to avoid detection but there are chances that the flights had all the required clearances from the Iraqi Air Traffic Control agencies and were conducted as a standard long-range ferry flight: one tanker/airlifter, using radio and transponder, supporting multiple fast jets.
