>>1766547>Us congress banned ssts because the american plane being developed by boeing was an embarassing shitshow and having the concorde flying above would be pouring salt on the wound.Cope. No one wanted sonic booms happening over them, either in the US or internationally. You can mewl that "It's just a rumble of thunder at that altitude! Muh Oklahoma City experiments!" all you want, but people want less noise pollution, not more. Weird how they weren't allowed to fly supersonic over Europe, India, or Malaysia either.
