Critical Mach number Critical Mach number In aerodynamics, the critical Mach number (Mcr or M* ) of an aircraft is the lowest Mach number at which the airflow over some point of the aircraft reaches the speed of sound, but does not exceed it. At the lower critical Mach number, airflow around the entire aircraft is subsonic. At the upper critical Mach number, airflow around the entire aircraft is supersonic. For an aircraft in flight, the speed of the airflow around the aircraft differs considerably in places from the airspeed of the aircraft; this is due to the airflow having to speed up
Mach Rider against a hazard on the track, they obtain more points— this also replenishes Mach Rider's bullets. "Mach Rider" takes place in the year 2112, and planet Earth has been invaded by evil forces driving vehicles known as Quadrunners.
