If the pilot or the FCS keep pitch under control, flight at Mach 1 can continue until the fuel runs out and the airplane hits the ground, causing speed to drop dramatically.

Currently, U.S. law prohibits flight in excess of Mach 1 over land unless specifically authorized by the FAA for purposes stated in the regulations. The two supersonic rulemaking activities would not rescind the prohibition of flight in excess of Mach 1 over land.
The Boeing 747–400cannot top Mach 1, capped at 988 km/h, or Mach 0.8. The plane cannot exceed Mach 1, because its engines are not fast enough to propel the aircraft forward that fast. This also has to do with the plane's aerodynamics, because it is large and has dihedral wings.
If human manoeuvre that speed Mach 1(1225 Kph), the air friction will increase the body temperature enormously.It will almost boil the body. The strange symptoms including temporary vision loss, loss of consciousness and weightlessness. The turbulence causes parts of the body swell out.
Fifty years ago, the federal government banned all civilian supersonic flights over land. The rule prohibits non-military aircraft from flying faster than sound so their resulting sonic booms won't startle the public below or concern them about potential property damage.
The average cruising speed of a helicopter is generally less than 160 knots (184 MPH). A fixed-wing aircraft may be as high as 450 knots (517 MPH). There is simply no helicopter that can cross continents at speeds approaching Mach 1 (the speed of sound), but several fixed-wing aircraft have done this.
