Nope. The loudest plane I've ever heard, by a mile, is the Concorde. I used to work across the highway from Dulles Airport (Dulles Corner, at 28 and 267, for those that know the area) 20 years ago when they were flying into and out of there four days a week. We were a mile and a half or so east of the north end of the runways at IAD, and let me tell you, if the Concorde was taking off southbound, when they went to full afterburner, you had to scream to talk in the parking garage. In my fifth-floor work area, the windows would vibrate on takeoff. 747s were a bare whisper by comparison, but you could hear the Concorde as a background rumble even in the very interior of the building in the elevator lobby.
The Bone was loud, but not even close. Coming in just behind the Bone in third place was an F-4F Phantom II from the German air force that I saw at the same airshow where I saw the B-1B perform. Big, mean, ugly, nasty, and loud...God, I love that Phantom.

Love your tagline
I saw and videotaped the Concorde take off at Atlantic City airport. Trump hired it to take some " High Rollers" on a trip. I took the kids over to see it happen . As it left the ground and passed almost directly over my head you could hear me say "Holy $hit !!" on the tape .
The second loudest was a Tomcat doing a 360 with full afterburners at 300 feet . The sound rattled you inside and made the water ripple .
