So that's what it was....

I happened to be having a break just near the old RAF Upper Heyford when there was a double bang from the North.
I though it was either pyros or the firework company that uses the weapons storage area.

What's the ATC clearance to the QRA jets again - "cleared buster" isn't it?
In other words - you have formal permission to break the sound barrier over land?
