Did anyone hear the sonci boom?

Should be sonic boom in title.

I'm not sure what the typhoon jet thought he was going to do about it though.

Actually jingl I prefer sonci boom and shall call it that from now on!!

Didn't hear it here in London but I hope we don't when the Typhoons are stationed near us while the Olympics are on.. I do remember once on holiday in West Wales many years ago we heard Concord as it 'boomed' over the coast . Loved that aircraft it bought a lump to my throat every time I saw it..

Sorry totally off topic... daydreaming today..lol

You will often hear sonic booms in the Lake District, where low flying military aircraft practice flying over terrain that is similar in challenges to that In countries like Afghanistan. The first time I heard the loud bang, I was driving over the brow of a hill and thought the bottom had dropped out of my car. Frightened the life out of me!

Apparently the MOD thought the helicopter had been hijacked!

story here

I used to hear them sailing cross channel. Two bangs, sounded like maroons being set off. It was Concorde?

It could of been Jeni , Concord would go supersonic as they passed over the coast and boom..

I haven`t heard a plane breaking the sound barrier since the 50s, it was a regular thing back then.
