[QUOTE="Snattlerake, post: 3923749, member: 44288"] In the 1950s and '60s, Americans filed some 40,000 claims against the Air Force, whose supersonic jets were making a ruckus over land. Then [B]in 1973, the FAA banned overland supersonic commercial flights because of sonic booms[/B]—a prohibition that remains in effect today. I knew an air force pilot at Tinker that was evacuating their F16's years ago when the big tornado was heading toward them. He said he had just gone wheels up and saw that big black funnel behind him and said, "Fckit" and put the throttle to the firewall. I agreed and he said no one was going to hear any sonic boom from me during that storm! [/QUOTE]
