![["Residents of Oklahoma City have been enduring a six-month supersonic test that has caused damage to property and disturbed many citizens. While some support the test for scientific progress and economic benefits, others find the sonic booms to be a public nuisance. The Federal Aviation Agency denies selecting Oklahoma City for the experiment based on inferior construction, and many residents have filed damage claims. The experiment, which ends on August 3, aims to study the effects of supersonic flight and control the magnitude of sonic booms. Despite some opposition, the city hopes to benefit from the growth of the aviation industry and job creation in the future."]](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_0029_thumbnail.jpg "Sonic Boom Controversy in Oklahoma City")
