    Explosion in WADC?

    I just saw a story about a possible explosion in or near Washington DC. There are no details.
    Call your state legislators and insist they approve the Article V convention of States to propose amendments.

    US Air National Guard sonic boom leaves windows rattling and residents ringing 911???

    The sound of a huge explosion was heard in the area surrounding Washington DC as the US military conducted air defence drills.

    Reports say the DC Air National Guard were conducting air defence drills over the Chesapeake Bay....

    Sonic boom from an F16 conducting an air intercept.

    Must have been an urgent affair.

    Apparently there was a rogue private plane over the DC area so F16’s were scrambled.

    Some dumbass has been doing circles around Georgetown and others in small aircraft are noted to be doing similar things (I read local news). Wouldn't surprise me if it were something pretty innocent.

    I hadn’t heard a sonic boom in ages. Then we spent the winter of 2019/20 in desert areas of Arizona and it was a common thing. Fighters from Luke AF base.
