Concorde used to fly over my precious home in East London - made windows rattle but what a sight (and I flew on her a few times - my memories and photos from those trips will live with me forever )

Ive been onboard a Concorde but sadly never flew in one and heard the booms several times.

Sonic booms were also a nuisance in North Cornwall and North Devon in the UK as these areas were underneath the flight path of Concorde. Windows would rattle and in some cases the "torching" (pointing underneath roof slates) would be dislodged with the vibration.
