How damaging are sonic booms?
How much damage can be caused to buildings by planes piercing the 'sound barrier'? Special tests in Sweden, recording the effects of overflights by a supersonic fighter plane, suggest that the repercussions of such flights may be less than is commonly assumed. A full report is in Document D3:1973 by Anne Marie Wilhelmsen and Bertil Larsson published by the National Swedish Building Research Institute.
