And you started at a point on the equator heading west. You flew at supersonic speed, around the world, and stopped at the exact same spot. 24 hours later, would it be the exact date and time that you left?

no because you would cross the international date line. and the line you are thinking of is the Prime Meridian, not the equator

It would be 24 hours later, plus how ever long it took you to make the flight. Crossing the International Date Line has no effect, because you'd be in the same place.
