flounder Posted February 11, 2009 Report Share Posted February 11, 2009 (edited) Everyone get your tinfoil hats out.. I hope you all realize that there are plenty of military jets capable of creating a sonic booms and those flyboys dont always listen to the rules when flying from one base to another. Almost any of the fighter jets at our military bases have the ability to create a sonic boom. Edited February 11, 2009 by flounder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disclaimer Posted February 11, 2009 Report Share Posted February 11, 2009 It was probably a Hayabusa. Did anyone notice their clocks stop when they heard the boom? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Almost any of the fighter jets at our military bases have the ability to create a sonic boom.Yeah but for one they are shown on radar (unless it is the F-22 or the SR-71 being the only stealth planes that can break the sound barrier that we know of), for two fighters make a huge sonic boom because they fly relatively low, and even though they may not follow the rules, the law is very strict about sonic booms over the US and they will get shit canned unless they have a huge emergency.

ReconRat Posted February 11, 2009 Report Share Posted February 11, 2009 (edited) heh, military projects... Aurora, Brilliant Buzzard, PumpkinSeed, TR-3A or TR-3B, X-33, X-34, X-37, X-43, X-47A Pegasus, and our old friend the SR-71 which *cough* isn't flying anymore.Most of these are hypersonic projects, and could be flying about. Not counting ones we don't know about yet. Not counting spacecraft. Secret or otherwise. Any could create a boom. And one of the current research projects is a "how to" reduce that sonic boom as much as possible. Don't forget that we have an "open skies" agreement with Russia, we and they can overfly each others territory anytime, as long as a flight plan is provided first. (yeah, sure, two seconds before arriving hypersonic) A lot of people have forgotten about that.These are all public. I could probably remember more, but I might have to go into hiding for talking about it...But if you ask me, it probably was that house exploding. Or one of those rare Winter thunder snowstorms.edit: btw, everybody is allowed to go supersonic above a certain altitude, I forget how high up...

The King Posted February 11, 2009 Report Share Posted February 11, 2009 I grew up in Pickerington, I heard my first and only Sonic Boom on the playground at Fairfield Elementary. Turned out to be an F4 Phanton II out of Rickenbacker... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DALE DOBACK Posted February 11, 2009 Report Share Posted February 11, 2009 this happened about this time last year in coshocton it was four seperate nights. they blamed it on something about the ground being cold or something really dumb. why dont they just say jets flew over supersonic it would be that simple Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fatbikez Posted February 11, 2009 Report Share Posted February 11, 2009 we are on the south side. there is heavy traffic going in and out of Rickenbacker these days so it was prob just a military plane. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomcat0403 Posted February 11, 2009 Report Share Posted February 11, 2009 I didnt know about the open skies thing...thats interesting especially these days with all of their huffing and puffing about everything. I also didnt know that planes could go supersonic above a certain altitude, i thought that none were allow to break it, but it makes sense that they can. My curiosity just wants to know wtf it was.

troyec001 Posted February 11, 2009 Report Share Posted February 11, 2009 Why are we assuming it has to be a stealth plane? Did everyone have their radars out and didn't see anything? Going supersonic might be hard to see with the naked eye. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomcat0403 Posted February 11, 2009 Report Share Posted February 11, 2009 someone would have talked about it by now if it was on the radar i would think...some bored air traffic controller or pilot would have wanted to put some excitement in his life and said something to the media probably Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReconRat Posted February 11, 2009 Report Share Posted February 11, 2009 Dudes... a B-52 or C-130 won't even show up on civilian radar, let alone any of the fancy modern aircraft.. Not anymore. It would be mistaken for a piper cub without a transponder on, if it was seen at all. It's the anti-radar stealth paint, if they are using it, they vanish. Commercial air traffic control doesn't even know until some pilot starts screaming about something weird happening.And air traffic controls won't talk about certain things. I've known them to say "I can't talk about that" and hang up when their friends call and ask questions.I still think it's just noises from the cold weather.

John Posted February 11, 2009 Report Share Posted February 11, 2009 Going supersonic might be hard to see with the naked eye.lol its only the speed of sound... its not like its the speed of light or anything.you can definitely see them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReconRat Posted February 12, 2009 Report Share Posted February 12, 2009 i think you are part of the conspiracy was... been out of it for a while. Still fun to figure stuff out once in a while. Wait till you have one of those extremely huge, slow moving black triangles fly over you at night. I'd like to see one of those. Just US Air Force, of course...

12oclocker Posted February 12, 2009 Report Share Posted February 12, 2009 I was driving home one night and saw a HUGE blue flash in the the sky, it one of the craziest things I ever saw, it took up at least half the sky over where I was driving (out in the country at about 12:30am) I never saw anything on the news about it.
