The "oh shit that may have been a little fast" brakes were out right after for sure lmao.
The speed brakes caused the boom. He was on the edge and put the speed brakes out to slow down.
@@wadeproductions2381yes he close to Mach the air brakes caused enough drag so suddenly airflow was super sonic and big enough to make a mini boom
@@wadeproductions2381 either that or he had slowed down from supersonic and the shockwave was still propagating
He took one for the team and did us a solid, what an absolute legend 🤙
Dear Air Force General, give this pilot a PASS . This is the coolest thing at an airshow especially the grand daddy of them all. Tons of smiling and laughing faces were seen afterwards. THAT was military projection at its best!
It's an FAA regulation he broke. It's above the generals, the regulation is for safety so this pilot is f'ed
The F-18s that week, came close, .98-.99. But, they flew level, and were calling out their speed. The F-16 demo pilot was flying by on a "Banana Pass", most likely paying closer attention to the crowd line than his HUD. Oops. I haven't heard anything more about the pilot, and he flew great demo's, the rest of the week.
Every airshow with SS capable aircraft should give the crowd 1 sonic boom.
he was not over the sound barrier. First, he'd break every window within a mile. Second, you can hear him comin right before the bang. I used to work on aircraft carrier and when they break the sound barrier, they are SILENT before they get to you. And a much louder bang! He was close though
It is illegal to break the sound barrier over land.
@@theforerunners5171 In designated areas they can at certain altitudes. While stationed at Edward's AFB, our aircraft broke the barrier on a weekly basis over base.
@@bradsworld2446 a sonic boom from a jet will not shatter windows within a mile. This is a proven myth. Will it rattle things and possibly knock a few things over? Yes. But even at low altitudes it will not shatter windows as everyone is led to believe.
@@theforerunners5171 We will be hearing them the next 2 weeks here in Wisconsin with the Northern Lights joint Military exercises going on. Theyll be up over 20,000 feet, but definitely over land. I think the police have put out warnings in something like 12 counties so people are aware.
I heard this live and couldn’t believe it. I had to search on RUclips to see if it was legit! Super awesome to be able to experience this live at Oshkosh.
Can’t wait to go back next year!!!
When was this?
@@richardpolhemus7672 Thursday July 29
@Alec maybe he meant the day of the F-16 demo. Probably should keep track of your context
Thanks. Now im jealous lol
When you see a military pilot nicknamed Boomer- this is how it happened.
Or it's because she constantly slams the aircraft into the deck and causes divots in the runway.
I will be expecting this every year now
Wont happen it was accidental and he got in trouble
@@Rocknracing69 is there any documentation for what happened to him?
@@Flying_on_faith Not that I have seen just articles out there speculating he was in hot water. I personally have seen nothing about an actual punishment.
What happens in the military, stays in the military. Better, What happens at Shaw AFB, stays at Shaw AFB. Everyone at Shaw, will back up Major Schmitz all the way. The F-18 pilots had a grin, and their own answer, that week lol
When you're not so used to fly a clean bird and accidentally tipped in out the supersonic state
I think it was close but no cigar. Even at Mach .8 and above you still have supersonic flow over the jet even at subsonic speeds. So the plane still has supersonic shockwaves around it as the air speeds up to get out of the way.
Pretty sure it was subsonic just before and went super overhead
You are describing a sonic boom.
@@pilotmike1296 No I am not discribing a sonic boom. Subsonic bullets do the same thing they exhibit supersonic flow and a normal shock even though the bullet is traveling at subsonic speeds.
@@427SuperSnake1 again a sonic boom. "In this schlieren image, an Air Force Test Pilot School T-38 is shown in a transonic state, meaning the aircraft is transitioning from a subsonic speed to supersonic. Above and beneath the aircraft, shockwaves are seen starting to form. These shockwaves propagate away from the aircraft and are heard on the ground as a sonic boom"
@@427SuperSnake1 transonic still produces sonic booms.
He popped those speed brakes immediately 😂
Don’t think he was quite supersonic, think he was high transonic. These guys calculate the speed of sound (343 m/s at sea level) down to the knot based on their aircraft’s critical Mach number, current field conditions/f. elevation/atmospheric conditions, namely temperature, to determine exactly where the speed of sound is at the specific altitude/location of the maneuver and will push to a high transonic airspeed; the range of transonic speeds depends on the aircraft’s critical Mach number, but transonic flow is typical at airspeeds between Mach 0.8-1.2. Critical Mach is the lowest Mach number at which airflow over some points of the aircraft reach the speed of sound but do not exceed it, so essentially the airflow around the aircraft begins generating regions of both subsonic and supersonic airflow. Typically the tail of the aircraft will reach supersonic flight while the bow is still subsonic often creating a visible cone of aerodynamic condensation from supersonic expansion fans terminating aft to a wake shockwave around the tail (this is a common sight during the Blue Angels solo high speed pass). It’s easy to think that the aircraft is supersonic because it almost is, and can generate a weak shock wave, but not a full N-wave “double sonic boom” because despite some areas near the airframe reaching the speed of sound the aircraft itself still has an airspeed below Mach 1.0. This makes for an impressive demonstration of speed without blowing out windows and ultimately standing at attention in the Skipper’s office.
The pilot's in the brig right now on a potato peeling detail, so...

@@bradsworld2446 oorah, You definitely know if you’ve been on the boat where they can make a true supersonic pass. Like you say, by the time you hear anything you’re looking up a vanishing tail pipe, and that N-wave “double boom” is unmistakable, in the way it sounds as well as the sheer energy that you feel from the shockwave. that’s been one of my primary thoughts is that this question can be easily answered by how much glass is broken around the airfield… he is right on the leading edge though, can see him running the boards out before crossing show center to keep it just shy of the line. Actually some very precise flying. Cheers 🤙🏻
I was there. He didn’t quite break it. Was awesome though.
I agree. Just below threshold.
If he had gone thru Mach 1 right there someone would have been in trouble
Ya. Big troubles if he would have actually have broken it. I believe it was like mach 0.98- 99. I mean just right there
He is in trouble, and FAA confirmed it was Super
@@troy498 can u document that???
Them clean F16s are hard to slow down once going that fast ! lol
I was in the weapons shop line van at Burlington VT when visiting units' jets were coming in for a Maple Flag exercise in the mid '90s. Each succeeding flight seemed to be trying to out do the previous one and the natives out in Winooski were starting to get restless and calling the base to complain. The base commander was in the process of reaming out the visiting aircrew with the usual "...if it happens one more time..." stuff when a flight of four Tomcats comes in on the deck at what must have been at least .95 Mach. I thought the van exploded! We didn't see or hear them coming from inside the van until "ssshBOOOOOOOOOM!". Fun times....
Mishn0; Great story but I am a little bit confused by your reference to a Maple Flag exercise?
@@GrimReaper-wz9me Looking at the Wiki, I guess it wasn't an official Maple Flag as those are held at Cold Lake Alberta, but it was a multi-unit exercise with participants from all over the place. I know we had Canadian CF-18s, Navy F-14s and EA-6s Marine Harriers and I know there were F-4s from Niagara and I know there were New Jersey aircraft, but I'm not remembering what exactly. I know they called it "Maple something" since the VTANG hosted it, but it was like 25 years ago so the details are hazy. I retired from the guard in 2000.
That’s so awesome! Thanks for sharing!!!
Participated in CAP as a cadet at BTV during that era, used to love watching and hearing the “Green Mtn Boys” fly the Charlie models. Remember the warbirds shop on the civilian side of the field that flew and restored mig-21s, mig-15s, etc? Good memories! Now the VTANG flies F-35s I hear!
@@Flyfishtherockies Yeah, that was Dean Martin, not the singer but the same name. We had a guy that worked for him in the shop and he had some stories about him. We could see his hangers down in the dip off the north end of the runway when we were at EOR doing pin checks during ops.
Did you know Sewell Rent? He lives just up the road from me now.
Transonic? Sure. But definitely not supersonic. The fact that you hear it coming is a dead giveaway - you don't hear something going faster than sound till it has already passed. And that was nothing like a "real" sonic boom.
I was in sixth grade at Murray school in China Lake when a pilot went over the area full supersonic. A little while later the custodian came by asking if everything was OK. The teacher said, "Yes. Why?" He told us that so far he had counted 28 broken windows and one light fixture knocked loose from the ceiling. We later found out that it had also shattered a number of glass shelves at the commissary making quite a mess.
It was still fun to see - glad you caught it.
Nice I was hoping somebody got this on video. The double boom and compression was incredible. Took a couple seconds to figure out what the heck just happened then everybody went nuts.
Glad you were able to experience it with us. Also happy to have support that this was an actual sonic boom.
Happened directly over my head at 200ft. The double compression pushed me back a step!
@@walterplentis3989 same here. Awesome show.
@@XLRSAv no it wasnt, the amount of trouble that pilot would be in for doing so and the sheer amount of medical emergencies that would have occurred in that moment tells everyone otherwise.
@@michiganskinny2033 you changed my mind with this link. Yep.
Really nice!!!! This should be mandatory on all airshows!!!!!!!
If only that could happen. But, this was an oops.
Incredible! Good catch!
It's stuff like this that make kids join the military. They want the action, they want to see hear and feel the rush of power. It's why I did years ago
Wow, that’s awesome. Thank you for your service!
We talked to the F-16 maintenance people afterwards and they said if he broke the sound barrier everybody in the front row would go deaf and all the windows on the planes in boing plaza would be shattered.
If he was at M1 or above, it was. Please define "didn't go fully supersonic".
@@RR-pw5nb , prior to "the whole aircraft going supersonic", the airflow over several parts of the aircraft will experience "supersonic flow" because the air flowing past/around them must flow at supersonic speeds. Sometimes this happens with the wings, but often with other roughly shaped or protruding surfaces of the fuselage. If you will pause this video at the closeup shots, you'll see the small clouds of condensation trailing from the lower lip of the engine intake and at the base of the vertical stabilizer/rudder. These lesser areas of supersonic flow can cause a "crack" (like that of a rifle shot as it leaves the barrel at velocities greater than 1,100 fps) or "thump" just after the aircraft passes, about the same time as the thunderous noise arrives, well behind the aircraft. Because of the shape and thickness of the F-4's wing, when Phantoms would make a 585-625 knot high-speed pass during an airshow, then do a 3-5 g pullup or turn just as they passed airshow/runway center, you'd hear a pronounced "thump" because there was a brief supersonic flow over the wings. Also, this "crack/thump" phenomenon is used by snipers to estimate the distance of others who are shooting at them. Hope this helps.
Just because the entire airplane didn't go supersonic, some part of it did as I was there down by the Warbirds area and heard a distinct, loud, double crack. It knocked down some plastic model airplanes off the ceiling in the Warbirds gift shop, and damaged some light fixtures. In 1995 the SR-71 did the same thing at EAA but he was much higher and farther away before landing. Also, if he was not at or near Mach 1 for current conditions, he would not have gotten into trouble right?
@@Craigpv2d I was in the front row when it happened I heard it trust me
@@Craigpv2d it doesn’t have to go supersonic to make that sound
Boom!!! 👌
FYI I’ve checked out your channel and look forward to (trying to) watch every single one of your videos!
I used to hear sonic booms twice a day when I was a kid. What used to be called Bunker Hill AFB here in NW Indiana had a B-58 wing based there, and during the height of the cold war, they would do practice runs using Chicago as a target. They would come over twice a day and you could almost set your watch to when you would hear sonic booms. I would hear them walking to and from school. Actually got used to it after a few weeks.
Me too
But never got used to it.
@@CRWTower you from NW IN?
That’s so awesome!!
@@RR-pw5nb No West Virginia and I wasn't hearing them twice a day but I heard my share in the 60's. It would rattle the windows.
A slick Viper breaking the SB? He's Bingo real quick. That's a ten minute flight.
Ehh make it 5 minutes
What does Bingo mean?
@@tylerseward2980 A certain fuel state. Typically a bingo call means the pilot has burned enough gas, training is over, and is headed back to base.
Well they probably are prepared
@@tylerseward2980 a predetermined fuel number that is determined by a variety of variables during a mission. Like length of sortie, distance from Area of operations back to a friendly base, or a circling tanker. Bingo is a warning, or caution. And joker is the term used for I’m leaving right now otherwise I will run out. Bingo is a warning, joker is warning is over return now or run out of fuel.
Does anybody know what day this supposedly happened? I was there Thursday and Friday and it was not either of those days. I even spoke to the Viper Demo Team about it and was told that they are NOT aloud to, but that a couple of passes I could see the shockwave on it and the guys said .98/.99, but definitely not Mach 1...
I live 25 miles from Robins AFB. They have been performing depot level maintenance on F-15 engines since the 80’s. I have heard hundreds of sonic booms over the years. When I worked night shift in the 80’s I would smile when they woke me up during the day. Feel cozy and protected and fall back to sleep.
The one pass I put my camera down for. Haha. So awesome
I’m so glad we captured it!!!
The moment he deployed the spoilers was the moment he realised he'd fked up.
He’ll be flying Cessna 172’s from now on 😂
He totally screwed up.
More likely a Mark 1 desk.
When the airboss called him out he just said. "Yeah, sorry about that" lol
@@XLRSAv No... A cargo plane full of rubber dog sh!t out of Hong Kong!
Nicely captured 👌 👍
He’s not super, you can hear him coming. He’s really damn close probably around .98 Mach but definitely not super & deployed air brakes to get slowed up before he actually did go super. Still damn fun to watch, though.
yup. a sonic boom is WAY louder and shakes all the water in your body. Plus it's illegal to do so, and all the glass would shatter.
I was on a carrier and the tomcats would break Mach 1 during 'air shows' when we'd put on a display for dignitaries. It's something you never forget.
Yup I also noticed the speed brakes real quick (partially or mostly open by 3 seconds into the recording) so yeah completely agree he just got closer to the barrier than he wanted to but this was not a sonic boom nor a supersonic fly by.
Ehhh....there are other videos, including a woman in her B-25, and it was SILENT before he passed. Definitely supersonic. ruclips.net/video/QlNxA2AHY7g/видео.html
He definitely was supersonic at one point during this pass, but likely backed it off by the time he got to this camera location.
yep you are correct. I used to work on carrier flight deck. They are totally silent and the bang is just AFTER they go by you. Plus, he would have broken every window within a mile around him. But very close
Dear Air Force, make at least one sonic boom at every airshow. Talk about getting people fired up for the military!
He may have flown it near the speed of sound but did not break the sound barrier. You can hear the jet engine just before the pass. If he had gone supersonic the sonic boom would have broken windows all around a one mile radius at least.
Aircraft isn't supersonic but a lot of the air squeezing over the leading edges is supersonic at that speed hence what is called the "mini-boom".
I was sitting at the end of the runway by the warbirds and this jet broke the sound barrier about 500 ft above us! What a legendary moment🔥
I was out in that area too, fuckin awesome
I was working out on the warbirds flightline at the time and I was so glad I had my ears on
I would be inclined to attend if someone would poke a hole that quickly! I recall when breaking the sound barrier was commonplace when I grew up in Seattle (1950s). I loved hearing the sounds of the Navy jets AFTER the pictures shook on the wall.
Publicly, he'll be in trouble. Privately, not so much.
It sure was a good crack, I dont hear it on this video, but I sure did at the show.
I also saw the plane crash on Sunday, his wheels were down & nose gear just collapsed. Dont let anyone tell you otherwise. Its the 1st plane crash I have ever seen and it was right in front of me, I was sitting on my ass on the line where you can put up your lawn chairs , watching the incoming planes & there it was. Amazing that they dont have a bunch of significant crashes considering the volume & pace of traffic.
We watched a Cherokee go off the runway on Wednesday. Almost hit a large group of parked planes. He got lucky
not super sonic
you can still hear a crack even at trans sonic as a pressure wave is still building around Mach .93-.99 it hits you equally as the aircraft passes over.
listen to this crack/thump of a BA Super Hornet
ruclips.net/video/qZVomSEX6NY/видео.html
still not Super Sonic as you can hear him coming.
Statisticly flying is safer than driving
@@Dillonkg1 Less collisions with things if you stay high.
@@myusername3689 staying as high as possible while driving is frowned upon
The USAF wouldn’t allow an FAA violation like this, especially over a densely populated area. That’s a major no no. They don’t do the high speed passes any higher than .94 Mach to give extra head room in case they’re coming in extra hot. You will still have the same effects, but there won’t be the distinct double boom you hear with a sonic boom. Again, NOT a sonic boom.
They didn't allow it, it was unplanned and likely an accident. It broke a window in one of the old FBO buildings (north end of OSH). The pilot was still accelerating through show center, and some people as far south as Warbirds heard the double boom.
Mmmh me thinks the pilot accidentally broke the sound barrier. Because after the boom, his air brakes came out.
Yeah because that's not supposed to happen. It's a violation to break the sound barrier because of the damage it could cause, (shattering windows etc). He shouldn't have done that, and paid more attention to the mach number. He's lucky he wasn't any faster. Probably knew he might be in trouble for that one at that moment...
Yup. Noticed same. Oops, let me put the brakes on. Potential flight violation.
This is a military pilot flying in an airshow, there are no oops.
@@richardpolhemus7672 mmmh….the Russian, Italian, British and American pilots. to name a few would wish to pilots will disagree with you.
No if you replay the video you can see the speed brakes open at 3 seconds into the video. It might even have been sooner than that but the camera work was obviously hand held thus you cannot see the aircraft much at all on the two second mark.
Same thing happened at Huntington Beach with the thunder birds practice. Had to deploy the air brakes after the pass over the pier
As I've heard it explained before, parts of the airframe are supersonic but not the whole enchilada. He had to have been .97-.99 tho. There's a video somewhere on here of a Rhino doing something similar.
Not in this case. This was full on supersonic.
@@DaFlyingStrawberry boom would've been louder. Close, very goddamned close, but no cigar, more like a black n mild. Lol. If it was a full boom, me thinks a lot of folks would've had a lot of issues flying out of there after the show.
@@DaFlyingStrawberry You could hear the jet before the boom. He was sub sonic.
@@Mishn0 for those that werent there, this is just the pass he went supersonic. it was a little further down the flightline that it happened so you wont hear it in this video. But tower did confirm.
@@keegles1 Eh, maybe, I wasn't there but I'm still not convinced. Not that that matters. I've heard several videos of the incident and in all of them you can hear the jet's engine noise before the bang. I'm not a physicist either, but that makes me think it was high subsonic. If it was supersonic, the first thing reaching the microphone would have been the shockwave, not jet engine noise. But like I said, it doesn't matter what I think and it would be cool to experience either way.
very good,video!
Thanks!
I was there and it was loud AF, but was definitely not a sonic boom. I've also watched an F14 pass right by the deck of a ship above the speed of sound and it's a whole other level complete with shove-you-in-the-chest shockwave. Regardless those F-16 low passes were awesome.
Nope, I take it back after watching the B25 girl's video. This must have been the last weekend, I left Friday. I'd have liked to have seen that!
yep. You are correct. he was not over the sound barrier. First, he'd break every window within a mile. Second, you can hear him comin right before the bang. I used to work on aircraft carrier and when they break the sound barrier, they are SILENT before they get to you. And a much louder double bang! He was close though
He didn't break the sound barrier. If he were to break the sound barrier at that altitude it would have shattered windows and also you would not be able to hear the sound of his engine until AFTER he passed by the camera. In the video you can clearly hear his engine as he's approaching camera.
Now that’s how the flight is done
oops overspeed a bit for the show. (probably on purpose). the pilots off the OBX do it every now and then off to the range when there are a lot of folk on the beach. we love it.
Absolutely cool 😎
Best ooops ever! Give the pilot a pass Air Force Oshkosh love it!

@@bradsworld2446 i don't know personally. But ppl who were there dont seem to agree with you. Then there's the video of the lady selling the B25. Maybe you should check that out. If it wasn't a sonic boom there was a seriously loud boom that happened from something (shrug)
@@NovejSpeed3 Thats because they've never heard one before. I've heard many at sea right over the ship. They are completely SILENT ... then double bang
@@NovejSpeed3 that and every single persons car there would have had shattered windows.... They all drove home just fine lol
@@bradsworld2446 I was on the 17th floor of a building when they scrambled two F-16s to "escort" a passenger jet that had an unruly passenger shortly after 9/11. Heard the sonic booms but nobody got their window shattered. One F-16 behind the airliner and the other checking out the cockpit. Watched the airliner land and the F-16s made a Viking departure straight up from O'Hare. Pretty intense moment for the times. I was at EAA when the Viper made that pass. I was surprised by the two booms in really quick succession. He wasn't supersonic on his approach so maybe that's why you can here him seconds before but perhaps as others stated maybe the air around the Viper was moving supersonic to cause that double boom.
I saw that f-16 coming while I was on the blue tram and I saw the wave across the wings and I knew exactly what it was a I was like “oh shit!” But that was awesome
That happens even when sub sonic at high speeds, it’s not a distinction of a sonic boom
I live five blocks from the flight line and this rattled my whole house! Thought my windows were going to blow out.
Fast YES! Noisy DEFINITELY! Kool, always! Super Sonic, sorry, absolutely NOT! 1000+ hours F-4
Then why was there a boom?
Yeah, your 1000 hours are admirable, but it was a sonic boom. Pilot made a mistake, and there is plenty of evidence proving it.
ruclips.net/video/vZlTFzitir4/видео.html
I think he was already slightly supersonic in this video
Was there, he definitely popped above Mach 1 for a split second. There was a boom. other videos you can see him pop the airbrakes when he realizes. It was a well documented event.
He did not break the sound barrier. I repeat, he did not break the sound barrier. He’s close to it, so you get to hear a bit of Doppler compression, but but he’s not over it. They just fired off a blank as he went over for the “boom”.
The reason I know this is you can hear the jet before you hear the little crack that’s supposedly his sonic boom.
This is the kind of circus shows they do at air shows all the time. If he had really be over the SB he would have shattered windows all around there, not to mention damaging peoples hearing, which would put the air force on the hook for a crap ton of lawsuits.
He hit the brakes, rare footage!!
THAT is the sound of freedom my friends.
Was this done on purpose or accidentally? If on purpose, how’d they allow it? Damage to stuff on ground, cars, planes, buildings etc?
Accidentally
I thougth they weren't allowed to do this? I was just at an air show this weekend where they specifically said jets weren't allowed to break the sound barrier at civilian events.
they arent not allowed to do so, and get in a ass load of trouble for it even by accident.
I was there. I don't believe he broke the sound barrier. The boom would have had severe consequences.
ruclips.net/video/QlNxA2AHY7g/видео.html
Look at this link. A better capture of it. And her hair. Not severe consequences.
A true "super sonic" pass drags a shockwave that is deafening - the overpressure causes windshields, windows, and other glass objects nearby to shatter, instantly. I personally witnessed an F18 high speed pass at LRAFB during an airshow, close to 625 kts (35 kts shy of Mach 1 - I spoke with the pilot afterwards) - the effect was exactly the same as this pass - jet flashed by in total silence followed a second later by a deafening roar (and slight "thump") - but nothing broken, no aircraft damages, and no eardrums were pierced or broken. It's true the air was "trans/super" sonic over a few parts of this F-16 - if you'll "pause/freeze frame" the video you'll see the small vapor trailing from the lower lip of the intake and just behind the base of the vertical stabilizer. However, too many people confuse the sudden arrival of the tremendous sound of the engine(s) in afterburner as a sonic boom - too bad. One F14 pilot did an unscheduled, unplanned supersonic flyby of his carrier while it was well out to sea. Several maintenance personnel who were working atop aircraft in the hangar deck were injured when the over pressure of the shockwave blew them off those aircraft. This pilot was "put in hack" by his superiors for such a dangerous and reckless stunt, needlessly endangering many of his shipmates.
Perhaps a little more research into the effects of sonic booms. Sonic booms RARELY cause damage. Read the study of sonic booms over OKC. This video doesnt show the boom as it was further north but indeed it has been confirmed it was a sonic boom.
@@keegles1 , yes, much difference between a sonic boom from an aircraft "at high altitude" and "on the deck or lower altitudes". ruclips.net/video/LtlTUxN40do/видео.html
@@N34RT please research U and N wave booms and pressures to understand how you can hear a boom without "blowing out your ear drum". I will admit several days later, I still feel like my ears are muffled.
Theres audio of the tower on liveatc
ATC: good job boomer
F16: oh, sorry
It wasn't a sonic boom, it was travelling just below supersonic. It's the same technique the Blue Angels and Thunderbirds use for their "sneak pass" where the distance between the aircraft and the ground is just enough that the sound hits you at the same moment it passes overhead. The supersonic boom is just that, a *much* louder BOOM, not this. I am a former F-16 (A/B block 15, and C/D block 40) crew chief and heard this technique used multiple times during OREs by visiting "enemy" F-16s, F-15s and even a 3 ship of B-1s (which were well below safe altitude at the time).
ruclips.net/video/QlNxA2AHY7g/видео.html
were you there? It felt like someone kicked me in the chest twice when it happened. It knocked out the wifi in our merch building and some stuff fell off the ceiling and hit a lady in the head. It was supersonic.
Same thing happened at the Reno Air Races in 1993. USAF F-16 demo. Reaction from the crowd was exactly the same.
If you hear the engine sound before the "boom" then it isnt a sonic boom.
Normaly you cant hear a thing in front of the sonic boom cone.
yep everybody fooled. lol he was not over the sound barrier. First, he'd break every window within a mile. Second, you can hear him comin right before the bang. I used to work on aircraft carrier and when they break the sound barrier, they are SILENT before they get to you. And a much louder double bang! He was close though
I think that’s me yelling! I didn’t get this pass on video. I believe he was technically Transonic and there wasn’t a full boom. I didn’t notice anything different from the sound but noticed he pulled power and rip the airbrakes.
Maverick... Goose... get in here!
He hit the speed brakes FAST.
Kbooom
right after passing the crowds
spotter A : "what is that thing coming out beside the engine ?"
spotter B : "well, that's the airbrake"
also Pilot : "brake brake brake!!, man that was too fast"
those are speed brakes. He popped out to slow down to stay in close for the airshow
Jinx.....I said " that's what I'm talking about" right as that guy said " that's what I'm talking about" 🤣🤣🤣
Hahaha, that’s awesome!! True aviation enthusiast 🙌
Can F-16 accelerate to Ma>1 and fly at supersonic speed without a burner? Rather not.
Nope. A sonic boom at that distance sounds like a double howitzer shot. It’s an explosion, not the snap that you heard in the video from an incidental shock on a small part of the aircraft.
Here's a better microphone that captured it. And her hair from the pressure wave.

A sonic *crack* at that distance.
Miramar early eighties it happened, windows broke in the area. I was there and I watched the hair of the crowd blowing back in a wave towards me fast, the Tomcat passed in total silence but very quickly the boom, I felt a rush of hot summer air into my ears popping them. I'm pretty sure this guy didn't punch through.
you are correct (And I was based in miramar 88-91' he was not over the sound barrier. First, he'd break every window within a mile. Second, you can hear him comin right before the bang. I used to work on aircraft carrier and when they break the sound barrier, they are SILENT before they get to you. And a much louder double bang! He was close though
interestingly enough it looks like it was accidental as he has speed brakes out fully deployed. Right about 7 seconds when they zoom in no afterburner and speed brakes are fully open
He probably wasnt supposed to do it and "accidentally" broke the barrier lol.
The force on those speed brakes fully deployed at that speed must be tremendious.
The moment he deployed the spoilers was the moment he realised he'd fked up.
he needs to quickly slow down to stay within the confines of the airport for the show, but he was not over the sound barrier. First, he'd break every window within a mile. Second, you can hear him comin right before the bang. I used to work on aircraft carrier and when they break the sound barrier, they are SILENT before they get to you. And a much louder double bang!

If nothing was damaged after this, I don't see why he would get in any sort of trouble. Everybody has wanted to hear sonic booms at airshows for years! I bet not one person would complain about this!

Underrated comment
@@mdavidkern funny thing is it happened again today by an F-18. Maybe they can get a group discount.
Truck master I think it is! 😂
Not quite, but close.
i never knew it could be done
YEAH!!!!!
I was just to the right of show center in front of Matt younkins beech 18 and we could barely hear the pop! I’m so jealous!
He didn't break the sound barrier otherwise windows will blow-out at the altitude he was flying at. Good effort old boy nonetheless
They make movies out of these kinds of moves. Buzzing the tower. Right Maverick?
I was in the warbirds gift shop when it happened. All the model planes hanging from the ceiling fell out with some of the the light ballasts!! Was like a bomb went off outside
I grew up next to Eglin AFB where there would be the rare but eventual accidental real sonic boom. Yes, it would shatter suburban home windows. This was no sonic boom. You know one when you feel one. And yes, you FEEL it more than you hear it due to the air pressure.
Pilot: Did I just? Oops.🤭 I guess I'll slam on my airbrakes now for that honest mistake.😏

When I was in the Air force we were camped up on a mountain in Idaho. We vectored in a couple of F14's over our site for a Bubble Check and they were supersonic about 100 ft above us. It was much louder than that and sounded like an explosion as opposed to a crack.
That was tail end. North side by papa 1: explosion. Awesome.
Jeffery, I learned long ago that you can't have a reasonable, intelligent exchange with those who've either already made up their minds, chosen their positions, or otherwise "closed their minds". They lack the ego strength to accept the possibility they're wrong, or worse yet, admit to their family, friends and associates that (in this case), "I didn't really hear a sonic boom at Oshkosh, like I originally told you."
Went full on the airbrakes right as he passed by. Got a little too fast there.
Fantastic.
No Boom there...just short but close!
were you there? It felt like someone kicked me in the chest twice when it happened. It knocked out the wifi in our merch building and some stuff fell off the ceiling and hit a lady in the head. It was supersonic.
Certainly transonic, sgockwaves start to build at mcrit which is possibly about .91
It’s been confirmed he broke it, someone got in trouble

Watch this he defiantly broke it

Theres a series of high speed flight videos that you need to watch to have a proper understanding of high speed aerodynamics. You start producing shock waves at speed less than M1.0
@@Ozgrade3 I dont need to watch a video to tell you what a percussive double sonic boom feels like. If you were here Thursday you too could've experienced it.
Sweeeet!!!!
Close but not quite. Close enough!
that was close to supersonic but not quite there, bet it was cool to see though.
Thanks!
Sorry, that IS NOT even close to the sound barrier,. Its a simple phenomenon called the doppler effect. Breaking the speed of sound anywhere close to a crowd like that would rupture eardrums, break windows on cars, buildings etc. He/She was doing about 600 knots not 761.2 mph or 1,225.1 km/h or 661.5 knots which is the base speed of sound at sea level.
That is a completely subsonic pass, not even close to a sonic boom and you can here the approaching plane.
Thank you all for 104K views!! You’re all amazing!
From the sound I heard, the Viper was high transonic, probably Mach .95 or so if I had to guess. At 200 feet the overpressure from breaking Mach 1 would have been absolutely devastating to people and property and is probably why you can see the speed brakes deployed after the jet passed. An F-14 at 200 feet 1/4 mile off of the port beam at greater than Mach 1 created a sonic boom strong enough to shake an aircraft carrier.
Military aircraft are prohibited from flying supersonic over the United States except in certain designated test areas or in instances of emergencies. The FAA banned all supersonic flights over the US or offshore where the boom can be heard on land in the early 1970’s and is now Federal Law.
Thank you for all the info. Though it apparently was not supersonic, it was still SO AWESOME!!
In 1969, Marine Capt. Vince Donile was late for a rendezvous after a maneuver near Kelowna B.C., Canada with the Blue Angels. He lit the afterburner of his F-4J and proceeded to blow out the windows of every building for eight blocks. This was totally subsonic.
@@XLRSAv Then you should change your misleading video title then
A transonic jet still creates a sonic boom as it passes from transonic to supersonic...
@@oliverlebot 24 hours later, its still not changed
F-16 is my all time favorite
I was in Cape Town when an airshow plane broke the sound barrier. I couldn't see the plane, but it sounded like a bomb going off at my feet. No windows near me broke though. It was the practice for the airshow and they banned them from doing it again at the actual airshow. Not sure how they got permission in the first place! English Lightning plane
he was not over the sound barrier. First, he'd break every window within a mile. Second, you can hear him comin right before the bang. I used to work on aircraft carrier and when they break the sound barrier, they are SILENT before they get to you. And a much louder double bang! He was close though
@@bradsworld2446 so how do you explain the crazy loud boom then? He was very high up I think, which is why it didn't break windows. There was complete silence and then a massive double boom. I never saw him, was too high and far away. All the news reported that he broke the sound barrier and the original site show schedule called for a supersonic pass, which was promptly cancelled after the practice run. The air strip where the show was was probably two miles away or more, but the planes would fly over our house
I heard a saw a Viper break the barrier near hover Hoover Gulch at the Reno air races in the early 90s and it was much more impressive. I don't think i have gone to a airshow in the last 20 years were so novice has not screamed about the sound barrier being broken during a fast jet demo. If the demo pilot busted mach 1 it would be HUGE news. If it happened im glad for those who heard it because it will not happen again i can assure you of that.
Just like lots of people could be assured it wouldn't happen here? I mean, WTF. Yes, it's a risky thing to do over lots of people and a populated area. No damage was reported and if he didn't actually break it, he was transonic at the very least.
ruclips.net/video/QlNxA2AHY7g/видео.html&ab_channel=Plane%26Pilot
That's the other view
@@fuckjewtube69 it will not happen again....except for this time where it happened Thursday AND Friday LOL.
@@Airplane_Willy actually do know of some damage but pretty minor
I want you to go EXACTLY Mach 0.99999. Got it? Definitely do not break Mach. Got it? Got it? Got it? 😉
There are sliding glass doors separating 2 rooms, inside of the building I work in. This sonic boom blew those doors out of their tracks. It knocked a bunch of things over and even the big gas 'bombs' or the 'wall of fire' that they light off won't do that. The jet fly-bys and explosions will rattle the building, but not knock things over. I have a friend that reported hearing the boom from her house a couple miles away.
WHATTTT!!! That’s crazy, did anybody capture any video?
@@XLRSAv unfortunately I don't think so, everyone was busy working. I did see a video posted just recently of a lady sitting in a B-25 while recording a sales pitch when this jet flew over. It definatly looks and sounds like a sonic boom in that video. The other video I saw was on the Plane & Pilot channel.
I think there’s a little exaggeration here
Well you are welcome to your opinion, but I have to disagree. What do you think I'm exaggerating? Were you there, if so where exactly? I will concede that I do believe the jet was supersonic for only a short time, because it was there are varying reports of what was heard depending on where the person was located in relation to the runway. I think the signature crack is better heard on other videos, but the videos that I've seen so far with good audio didn't capture footage of the jet like this video does. The other videos just happened to be recording while in a prime location to hear the sonic boom. We're used to working next to the EAA. The pyrotechnics and low passes are always entertaining but are nothing new. This scared the crap out of everyone. It caused other crazy things to happen but unless you work there and are familiar with the building it would be too hard to describe in the comments. For what it's worth, I will add that I've tried to be careful not to exaggerate anything that I've stated.
@@kdiggs23 wasnt super sonic
exact same sound here:
ruclips.net/video/qZVomSEX6NY/видео.html
the lady in the B-25, you can hear the jet just a fraction of a second before the actual crack. that means not super sonic
You hear something right before the pop which means the whole airplane wasn’t supersonic. My guess is there were shockwaves being generated off the tops of the wings and canopy but the aircraft wasn’t technically supersonic.
If you ever hear a real sonic boom there is zero sound until the shockwave hits you and then it sounds like a canon going off. You feel the overpressure in your chest.
The funny thing is when you push through Mach 1 it’s basically non-event from inside the aircraft. The first time I went over Mach 1 the guy I was flying with said, “much ado about nothing.” Haha
yeah no

Microphone muffled the boom to the point this video sounds like an average high-speed pass. Other videos have a clearer audible boom.
