I don't understand all the fuss over a couple of booms. When I were a kid the Phantoms at Yeovilton regularly boomed all over the southwest, we used to try to count how many we could hear in a day. Never a complaint about damage. In fact when the Phantoms were moved north, some local residents complained about not being able to hear them


And its not so many years since you could set your clocks by the westbound afternoon Concordes lighting up - one British over the Bristol Channel, one French over the English Channel. From my parents house you cold hear both
