Reply to comment by techno525 in Anyone Hear That Sonic Boom Around 2:00? by Gree-Grump

Yah wtf was that thought it was an airplane but nothing on any flight trackers

Edit it wasn’t a sonic boom, but 100% sounded like a high performance aircraft low altitude high power settings, thought maybe FedEx down low but nothing

Yeees captain, same! It was deeper then the ups and fedex planes that go over. Nothing on tracker. I should have checked out the window, but like OP. I was eatting 😆

I also had flight radar up almost instantly and there was nothing nearby. Sound source was distinctly traveling to the west, not south towards MHT. FedEx and UPS are very good about always showing up on radar. Whatever the noise came from was traveling much faster, but also lingered far longer. Thought it was thunder initially, but it kept resonating and rumbling. Maybe meteorite or other space debris burning up in atmosphere?

Been actively watching the skies all week and I miss something good because of a stupid salad. 🙃

I appreciate this. Planes fascinate me and I'm finding I want to learn more and more. Thank you!

All I could see is the orange glow when it went over bedford. But damn it was loud!

There was a Hercules doing touch and go's last Thursday. Honestly A LOT of military activity in the skies that day. Maybe it came back off the radar? Almost sounded/felt deeper then that though. Now I'm dying to know...

Wait really???? Orange glow?

I didn’t get afterburner vibes from the sound

Been to enough air shows to have a general idea what it sounds like 🤷‍♂️

I totally think military though. not all show up on ADSB tracking software as lots don’t have ADSB Out equipment

Hooksett here. Apologies that might have been me. Kielbasa and beans is, unrelatedly, delicious.
