Now that website looks alot better. The previous one looked too simple. Looking on the bottome page has a picture of the Edwards Airshow, man I wish I could go there, I heard an f-16 will do a demo of breaking the sounds barrier, of course Edwards is in the middle of no where so no building to buzz by hahaha, well thanks for the link LD

Yes and if they do that, they will be above 30,000 ft no doubt, heck maybe even above 40,000. NASA brought the SR-71 to Oshkosh and was going to do a supersonic test after they mid-air refueled right above Oshkosh, so we're all sitting and waiting for it to go boom boom (Mach 2) and the plane's fuel receptical broke and had to divert to Milwaukee. Lucky me, the time i get to hear a sonic boom, and the damn plane breaks.

Come to Florida and listen to the Space Shuttle's twin sonic booms during re-entry! It's wicked if you've ever heard one and probably not the first thing you'd think of when you hear that sound...
Wonder what the Thunderbirds are putting under the "Show" tab on their website. Hopefully, they'll re-design the library gallery and add more multimedia from the shows. Here's hoping!

Yes!!!!! you are right. I want to go to check out the re-entry of the space shuttle sonic boom. I heard its so loud that it makes you jumb and feel the impact. I heard the next lift off is in Dec and re-enters on the 18 of DEC. If i can't make it to this one, I will make arrangements for the next one.
