![["The article discusses the results of sonic boom testing in Oklahoma City, which are linked to future air transport. The intensity of the boom varies with factors such as height, speed, and distance of the aircraft, as well as atmospheric conditions. The tests involve controlled booms to simulate the sound of future supersonic transports, with the goal of ensuring that the booms do not exceed 2 lbs. of pressure. The article also addresses the impact of the booms on residents, potential damage to structures, and public acceptance of supersonic transport operations. The city was chosen for the experiment due to its air-minded attitude and support from local organizations."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/A.%20S.%20Mike%20Monroney%20Collection,%201938-1968/CAC_CC_038_8_47_3_0000-Sonic%20Booms,%201964/thumbnails/CAC_CC_038_8_47_3_0016_thumbnail.jpg "Sonic Boom Test Results: Implications for Future Air Transports")

![["A 6-month-old baby narrowly escaped harm when the ceiling of his home in Oklahoma City Limes fell in, possibly due to sonic booms. The parents blame the incident on the booms and had previously reported ceiling cracks to FAA inspectors. The damage was minimal, with only a broken wall plaque and damaged furniture. Firefighters responded to smoking insulation in the floor furnace, but no fire occurred. The neighbors helped clean up the debris and insulation from the fallen ceiling. Mrs. Thomas believes the sonic boom caused the ceiling to collapse, as it fell from the same spot that had cracked earlier."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/A.%20S.%20Mike%20Monroney%20Collection,%201938-1968/CAC_CC_038_8_47_3_0000-Sonic%20Booms,%201964/thumbnails/CAC_CC_038_8_47_3_0024_thumbnail.jpg "Sonic Boom Causes Ceiling to Fall in Oklahoma City Home")
