[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Big sonic boom heard at 9:10 am[/b]. Anyone see where the planes were heading or know about a drill?[/quote] No. Did NOT happen. I saw them this morning. A flight of four USAF F 15c's, loose 2+2 formation, heading 70deg east/northeast over the Bethesda area, about 3k AGL, maybe 400knts There is no way you heard a sonic boom. Or have [i]ever[/i] heard one. Because if you ever had, you wouldn't call the simple jet noise you heard this morning a "sonic boom". If those planes had gone supersonic, you'd have thought your house had exploded. They wouldn't break the sound barrier over a populated area. There'd be literally thousands of broken windows below. [/quote] I hear a boom when the Space Shuttle came back. I lived 100 miles from Kennedy Space Center...People always said it was a sonic boom.[/quote]
