Could anyone (non-military) in these days “exceeded mach 1 over a regulated area”?
There is a question What would happen if I exceeded mach 1 over a regulated area?
I wonder, does anyone in civil aviation (not a military) could actually do this violation? I know there are privately owned "warbirds", but looks like the majority of them are really old. The "never exceed" velocity is defined well below the Mach 1 for majority of the planes.
Are there any cases known when someone non-military owns the aircraft that could exceed the speed of sound and then land at least mostly in one piece?
Let's limit the scope of the question to USA and Europe.

Regardless of the "never exceed speed", it is possible for an aircraft to exceed the speed of sound, and the max speed, in a dive for example Are you asking if someone can exceed Mach 1 without exceeding the design limits of the aircraft?

Yes, In the U.S.A there are many privately owned ex-military jet fighters that are capable of exceeding Mach 1. It is quite conceivable that a privately owned fighter jet has exceeded Mach 1 but not reported it or been caught by the authorities.
You can search the FAA civil registry by type: FAA REGISTRY
Make / Model Inquiry
Here is just a partial list of privately owned supersonic jet fighters in the United States:
Douglas A-4 _
Lockheed F-104 _
McDonnell F-4 _
NORTHROP F-5 _
MIKOYAN-GUREVICH -21 _
MIKOYAN-GUREVICH -23 _
MIKOYAN-GUREVICH -29 _
Sukhoi SU-27
These two aircraft are owned by the Collings Foundation in Florida and are available for airshow demonstrations.
