[Matthew]

Coming to a neighborhood near you:

KS has a deal with FAA for flight testing non-military aircraft at 1-3 Mach.

I'll try not to get hit from behind.

"Senator Moran said industry forecasts show a market for as many as 300 sophisticated supersonic aircraft"

Let's start with just 1. She also goes on to say this will help Kansas recover economically from Covid-19.

As long as you stay out of the "federal airspace" you should be fine.

"This corridor is entirely in federal airspace above Kansas...."

At or above FL 390.

To be honest, I also try to avoid trailing edge bird strikes in the 150.

Man, nothing like a good sonic boom to wake a person in the morning.!!

Last one I heard was in 1992 in Florida as the space shuttle flew over heading towards the shuttle landing strip.
