(ENT: "Broken Bow") Footage of Yeager and his plane were featured in the opening credits for Star Trek: Enterprise. According to the Star Trek Encyclopedia (3rd ed., p. 571), Yeager became the first Human to fly faster than the speed of sound on October 14, 1947. The flight maneuver known as the Yeager loop was named in Yeager's honor as well as three Federation starships called USS Yeager.

| abstract | - Charles Elwood "Chuck" Yeager (; born February 13, 1923) is a retired brigadier general in the United States Air Force and noted test pilot. In 1947, he became the first pilot to (officially) travel faster than sound. Yeager's career began in World War II as a private in the United States Army Air Forces. After serving as an aircraft mechanic, in September 1942 he entered enlisted pilot training and upon graduation was promoted to the rank of flight officer (the World War II USAAF equivalent to warrant officer) and became a North American P-51 Mustang fighter pilot. After the war, Yeager became a test pilot of many types of aircraft including experimental rocket-powered aircraft. As the first human to break the sound barrier on October 14, 1947, he flew the experimental Bell X-1 at Mach 1 at an altitude of 45,000 ft (13,700 m). Although Scott Crossfield was the first to fly faster than Mach 2 in 1953, Yeager shortly thereafter set a new record of Mach 2.44. Yeager later commanded fighter squadrons and wings in Germany and in Southeast Asia during the Vietnam War, and in recognition of the outstanding performance ratings of those units he then was promoted to brigadier general. Yeager's flying career spans more than 60 years and has taken him to every corner of the globe, including the Soviet Union during the height of the Cold War. Yeager's popularity soared in the 1980s, when he was prominently featured in Tom Wolfe's book The Right Stuff and in its 1983 movie adaptation, in which he was portrayed by Sam Shepard.

(ENT: "Demons") In 2368, USS Enterprise-D chief engineer Geordi La Forge remarked that the impending test of the soliton wave was like "being there to watch Chuck Yeager break the sound barrier." (TNG: "New Ground" ) The flight maneuver known as the Yeager loop was named in Yeager's honor as well as three Federation starships called USS Yeager.
