Maybe its just a myth, but wasn't the Lightning thought to be the first plane to break the sound barrier in a high altitude full dive? Supposedly pilots died when trying to pull out and the tails snapped off? Probably a myth.

not a myth, although the P-38 didn't actually break the sound barrier....came close and as it did so, it encountered compressability which caused the airplane to tuck. The tail did depart, but not so much from the speed, but from the corrective action taken to recover from the tuck.
