How fast a yam must travel in order to ignite by friction with air, at sea level?

the speed with which a yam, yam a medium size, have to move in order to catch fire by friction with the air, like a meteor? I say at sea level because I assume that the air is dense

As everyone knows, a yam spontaneous combustion at a temperature of 788 degrees F. Consult a graph of speed vs. kinetic friction due to air resistance, this temperature corresponds to a speed of 1536 miles (or 2472 km / hour), or about Mach II. There are very few natural processes a yam speed to this speed, which explains the lack of first hand information or youtube videos yam turn speeding and zipping about the countryside. In fact, only known case of high-speed spontaneous ignition of a yam produced in 1973 the air force pilot Solanum Soviet Yuri maneuvers while routine on the Black Sea. Traveling at a speed of over Mach III in his MIG fighter (backwards, no less), Yuri was taking a break from blasting the sky to drill F16 your lunch. Lunch was reportedly a cup of borsch, some stale bread rather a liter of vodka, and you guessed it .... a yam. Unfortunately for Yuri, improper closing of the same cup of MIG released, resulting in rapid loss and catostrophic of the entire canopy, vodka, borsch, MIG itself, and the head of Yuri. Witnesses report notes, however, that the last thing he saw before Yuri lost his head (literally) was the spectacle of heating and burst yam in flaming colors hit the air stream, which is inspired pant Yuri "wow." unsubstantiated reports claim that charred bits of yam a bit (And MIG) were later found washed on shore in a small village in Yemen, and is said to be "delicious."
