We're probably going to be fairly cautious about flights near the Sears Tower.

O'Hare is where we want jets to go, so I'm not seeing a story here.

I just saw this happen a little bit ago, I told my sister to look out the window when we were driving. I saw it up north, really weird. Listening to local radio now and I'll go back outside to check out the skies.

I live under a flight path to O'Hare.
If it happend about 15 to twenty minutes ago I think I heard it. Seriously. It didn't sound like a commercial jet.
However, I will await confirmation before I jump to conclusions ...

story? ...potentially, the panic button was invoked and a jet was scrambled???
(ok, we're all a little jumpy)

I live 6 miles from O'hare in Elmhurst. I felt that sonic boom shake my house. I ran outside to see nothing. Thanks for the post. Panic mode is now disengaged
