Missouri is not too close to any coastline but we routinely hear the boom.

Testing stuff from Boeing over the Mark Twain NF.

Saw a few go SS at altitude, pretty cool.

The boom travels about 5 mikes per 1k feet, so a jet at 10k leaves a wake 50mi wide....

My Lilly livered neighbor complains about the noise but I remind her that that’s the sound of good men willing and able able to do violence on her behalf....

Ah the sound of turbines and the smell of jp8 in the morning, almost as good as tge smell of nitroguanimide and nitrocellulose in the morning....
