2. Is that top one a supersonic pass?
Looks like a serious pressure wave, as if the shot was taken at the moment of a sonic boom.

3. He was definitely moving, though there was no boom
but it was loud nonetheless. It had rained the evening before, and there was some humidity in the air, so that might contributed.

6. the Thunderbirds are
here this weekend for a show. Just one week after their incident in Chicago. I know the local organizers of the show were sweating it for a few when the Air Force grounded them, but they've been cleared to fly so the show is still on with the main attraction.

7. It was disappointing when they were grounded
We saw maybe half their show on the first day before the incident. Hopefully you'll get to see the whole thing.
