Major jet noise

[rifelman]

Just got woken up in Owings by massive jet noises. Anybody got any idea what’s going on? Thought it was the end of times.

Now that's an interesting question.

Maybe the wails and lamentations of the demise of the St. Paddy's day redhead post screeching through the halls of hell.

I remember jet noise before hush kits. Georgetown in 1965 they'd come screaming down the river to National and you'd just have to stop conversation because you couldn't hear anything else.

If you had a car you could drive to the parking lot at the end of the runway and soak up the takeoff noise. It was quite a rush but I'm paying for it with tinnitus for the rest of my life.

In those days commercial airliners would still have been using straight turbojets rather than turbofans, right?

A loud scream rather than a low roar...

Someone from over at Pax Rive may have wandered over your house.

Pax River announced to the local news a noise alert that they were conducting FCLP’s. The F-35 is particularly noisy.

Ahh, would that be Fleet Carrier Landing Practice by any chance? Us old guys aren't up on the current abbreviations.

I'm down near North Beach, woke me up and roared for a couple of minutes. Never heard anything that loud from inside the house, lasted a while as he was going away

 

[wilcam47]

See any of these?

Field Carrier Landing Practice.
Any FCLP wouldn’t have anything to do with jet noise around here.

Unless some Ace decided to land at his girlfriends house for a nooner.

Heard it here in Deale too. Really shook the house.

It's the sound of freedom. I love the sound of a jet turbine. Sprinkle a little bit of Whop-whop-whop from a chopper and I'm in the zone.

Where I grew up, Do Wop was cool but you could get your ass kicked if you went around saying wop wop wop.

She’d need to have the proper landing strip……
