Would that be coming from the Hardwire testing grounds in Newark, MD that they claimed would sound like nothing more than a gunshot to nearby residents?
It was very loud...shook the whole house here in the Pines. I've talked to people who heard it in OC also and others in all areas of the Pines. Anyone know what it was?
I've heard many sonic booms in my life and it sure did not sound like one. It could've been, but if it was a sonic boom there was something that made this different.
Here in Bishopville there was a kind of rumbling sound for a few seconds before the actual boom was heard-maybe for a total of 10 seconds or so. I thought it was another earthquake.
anything new on this? was it just a sonic boom? They aren't allowed to break the sound barrier anymore unless they are a certain number of miles off the coast. So if it was, it was a mistake.
The FAA regulations require aircraft to maintain speeds below Mach 1 over populated areas in times of peace. in an emergency, of course, they can break it. But there are designated areas (mostly in western us where the populations are low, and out to sea) where they can. If they are close to land, they have to be fairly high in altitude and it would not be as loud as this 'noise' was.
I was in Berlin today and heard it. It definitely was not a sonic boom. Shook our whole entire maintenance shop. It sounded more like a cannon of a power transformer blowing. Very very possible that it happened at hardwire.

ReplyDeleteI heard it in Bishopville also. Then shortly after I heard the fire whistle. I don't know if it was related.
ReplyDeleteNo 11:41. It wasn't coming from Newark otherwise people in that area and Snow Hill and Berlin would have reported hearing it.
