SONIC BOOMS at Edwards AFB! - Edwards AFB Airshow 2022
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
Sonic booms shake Edwards AFB during the 2022 Aerospace Valley Airshow and STEM Expo! This is the only airshow in North America to feature real sonic booms. Each day, a US Air Force F-22 Raptor opened the show with a sonic boom at altitude, then later in the afternoon a NASA F-15 Eagle and F-18 Hornet performed booms of their own.
The F-18 performed a "low boom" profile which is designed to greatly reduce the impact of the boom on observers below. This is a precursor to the X-59 QueSST which will pioneer research in 'quiet boom' techniques with the goal of making supersonic travel commonplace.

I grew up on the east coast of Canada and used to golf early in the summer mornings with my father at an ocean side golf course. More than once we heard the distinctive double boom from Concorde as passed by several hundred miles off shore on its way to New York from London.

And then a short while later, we would see it cruising by our house on Long Island as it approached JFK airport. VERY loud. We always knew it was the Concorde.

When I worked at Edwards there were typically sonic booms occurring randomly 2 to three days per week depending on the flying schedule, it never gets old.

It gets old when you live in the area and are minding your own business and your heart jumps out of your chest as they can often sound like explosions.
Grew up in Germany in the 90s with lots of sonic booms. After a few incidents with windows being broken they unfortunately stopped doing that, which I am still quite sad about today.

Same thing around where i lived growing up in the states. They flew F4E Phantom II's. Occasionally there would be a sonic boom and the AF Base would send an apology via the television news. One day a window broke at our school from a sonic boom, and after that I'm not sure there was another one. They flew day and night all weather. Then when they got F-16s, they seemed to only fly when it was a bright sunny sky. I missed it. Then they got A-10s... now they're back flying in overcast and cloudy skies.

Awesome stuff! Edwards is such an iconic location. I grew up out there in the Antelope Valley and recall seeing so many airplanes in the 80s and 90s. I really miss those days.

I’m 79 years old and when I grew up in Wichita Falls TX, home of Sheppard AFB, there were lots of sonic booms back in the late 50s and 60s before they were stopped. Some were not so loud and some were very loud. There were lots of complaints mostly from farmers who said it was affecting their livestock. Chickens quit laying, etc.
Wow! NASA has two F-15’s but one curiously looks like a F-18. Where do they get these announcers?

Growing up in Southern California, we used to get a lot of booms in the late 60's as well as seeing the guppy planes making a lot of flights. Very exciting times, when slide rules designed the fastest planes of all time.
Loud music & loud announcer not being quiet during the sonic boom demo is pure comedy

Wonderful sound!❤
I grew up in rural N. Co. In the 60’s we heard sonic booms all the time.
that’s sick, i was right in front of the thunderbirds
Here in North Texas we are ready for 2022 FW Alliance Airshow 🛩️ 😎
In SoCal 60 miles east of L.A., in the 60's we heard sonic booms quite regularly from military planes. Nobody paid them much attention.
This was AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!
Would have been awesome to have been there to see and hear this. Although, it would have been better without the music and less than stellar narration.

That is just amazing . Like it a lot.
so amazing that supersonic flight only started 75 years ago.
Love it!
Aww man what the hell i missed this airshow.
A sonic boom does not occur only at the moment an object crosses the sound barrier and neither is it heard in all directions emanating from the supersonic object. Rather, the boom is a continuous effect that occurs while the object is travelling at supersonic speeds and affects only observers that are positioned at a point that intersects a region in the shape of a geometrical cone behind the object. As the object moves, this conical region also moves behind it and when the cone passes over the observer, they will briefly experience the "boom".

I knew that was bill contis "breaking the sound barrier" score in the background 😄
Sweet AF!
How far was the Raptor above you?!
nice
Why f15 and f22 sonic boom are not loud at high altitude and sounds like a clap, while the f16xl and sr71 at high altitude are much more louder and sounds like thunder.
Wish i could go to edwards, im in chicago and it will be hard to get there.
In the 80's we had booms every week. Starfighters and phantoms did well
we have some nice stuff in the uk but the US airforce does have some sexy air power!
WOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!
Miss sonic booms and low supersonic flybys
Hard to tell when the camera can not pick up the sound correctly. Seems to be sonic booms if checking the reactions. Heard Viggen once, looked up, and saw something speeding at 40K altitude. Much darker sound and more power.
damn... my kids and went to Miramar the weekend prior, and we were thinking of going to Edwards too and decided one in a week was enough. obviously one was not enough, or if one was enough we picked the wrong one.
"hey, you should totally listen out for these sonic booms, just keep listening they'll be here soon. excuse me while i play loud annoying music and continuously talk over the thing that you're trying to hear!"
I looked up how loud sonic booms are and the answer was "110db." I call cap, how can something significantly louder than a fighter jet (140+db) be only 110db?
That must have been one weak sonic boom haha. Man the f-15 sonic booms we have here causes my place to rattle and they are really loud here. You can feel it in the floors and walls. They tend be really loud in very moist air!!!

NASA's F - 15 and F - 18! Could've done without that Star Wars music!😒 And, thank you for moving away from the crowd to film, towards the end!👌
Tia this commentator special? He says around the 50 second mark “NASAs F15 and NASAs F15” when it’s clearly a f18 and a f15
I went there
😍🇧🇷✌️
From that distance and altitude, not as impressive as one would imagine. It sounds like a car backfiring, or a pyro charge when they have the MAGTF demos.

not at Edwards. Edwards was where the first Sonic Boom was heard and they are the only place in the US where you can do them.
that was a B1 lol
worst air show announcers ever
LOL, the announcer is out of touch with why people go to airshows. It's not for the quite sonic booms. It's for loud sonic booms, generated by a jet close to everyone's eyes. See Jet, See Jet make boom-boom. Passing out hearing protection at the front gate.

Too bad everyone couldn’t just shut up for a second and let us actually hear them. Announcers are by far the worst ‘feature’ of any airshow.
Not impressive. In the late 1950's or very early 60's at the Lockbourne AFB air show, an F-100 went super right down on the deck in front of the crowd. KA----BOOM!!! You were allowed to do that back then. Now that was impressive.

A low level supersonic pass would shatter windows and blow eardrums. And the vapor cone only occurs before the aircraft actually reaches supersonic speeds when air condenses.
