[QUOTE="sea2summit, post: 1658543, member: 105720"] If you hear a whiz then a crack then a boom the bullet is already subsonic. You hear the bullet go by, then you are hearing the crack of the sound waves overlapping but not the same sound caused by breaking the sound barrier, then the report of the rifle. In these cases the report of the rifle is actually catching up to and can pass the bullet. Similarly the sonic booms you're hearing around Warner Robin is the overlapping of the sound waves as something approaches you at nearly the speed of sound. Not saying they don't fly super sonic but there are many rules and aside from the pilots that draw penis' in the sky most pilots are going to follow the rules because they want to continue to fly.
