As I close in on nearly 2 decades as an aviator, I can tell you with certainty that one cannot tell from the ground how high a plane is with any reliable accuracy. Pattern altitude is typically 1,000 feet AGL for most general aviation airports. In downtown austin, there are buildings that approach 1,000 ft, and I think there is one under construction that will exceed that.
You fly that low, and supersonic, and you're leaving a trail of broken shit everywhere. Shattered windows, stuff falling off walls...its not just a loud noise...
Doctors in 2021: “as a doctor, I know more than you and your opinions are all wrong.”
As an aviator of 15 years, I have learned to tune out those that lead with “As a (fill in the blank).”
Also this has nothing to do with being an aviator. If you had led with “as a person who’s looked up at the sky my entire life,” I’d have given you more credence.
In short, this entire comment was manufactured to let you know that I too am an aviator. Thank you for my service.
