Must've liquified the bones of the pilot!

It did not "liquify" the female pilot who flew the piloted v-1.

Great plane anyway, damn fast too.

I assume that is because of the soundwaves, not the vibes. That can be fixed, and if vibes are such a problem the pilot can sit an a very soft chair, and have hydraulic compensators on the engines.

Don't forget that if the airframe is vibrating, those vibrations will create their own pressure waves inside the structure and cockpit.

Pressure-waves create vibration, vibraiton creates pressure waves.

The difference between a vibration and a pressure wave could (loosely) be simply a matter of whether the medium is compressible or not.
