F/L Boulet also called in at the News-Record office and asked that some facts and ex- planation of the booms be given to readers in this area, who have also reported some dam- age in the frequent RCAF man- oeuvres. Parts of the information that prove interesting are as,.. fol- lows: Noise has always been associ- ated with progress. When the steam engine sparked a world- wide industrial revolution, it was one in a long series of noise-making machines which aided progress. Not long after its invention, the steam engine was put on wheels and the loc- omotive was born. Before very long, the iron horse was racing across the Countryside at the unprecedent- ed speed of almost 20 miles an hour, frightening the livestock and creating great clouds of black smoke. People complained that here was the end of peace and quiet, but soon realized that railroads were opening vast new front- iers and bringing about the de- velopment of resources as well as providing efficient transpor- tation. Ban "Noise Maker" On the heels of the loco- motive followed a noisy unreli- able, danger,ous-looking con- traption called the automobile, which began taking over the roadways that had been built for the horse and buggy. Campaigns were waged to ban the "noise making mon- ster", but the complaints rapid- ly disappeared when it was understood that this noise too was one of the sounds of pro- gress. Other inventions cropped up in the line of "noise makers" and one of these was the air- plane and from the short space of time from 1909, when J. A. D. McCurdy succeeded in mak- ing Canada's first heavier-than- air flight, to the eve of VE Day, the airplane graduated from a cumbersome, slow-fly- ing apparattis to one that could attain speeds faster than sound. And with this new type of propulsion — the jet engine — came another sound of pro- gress, the supersonic boom. What Is Sound? Sound as we know it, is in fact, a series of pressure waves set up in the air, which causes our eardrums to vibrate. These vibrations pass through the ear, and our brain interprets them as recognizable sound. These sound waves are usual- ly started by an object vibrat- ing back and forth in the air, and reaching our ear as waves, As an example, it is not the sound'of a mosquito's voice that we hear, but simply the rapid motion of its wings as they disturb the air. This distur- bance is transmitted through the air in the form of sound waves. It is natural that atmospheric conditions should play a part in the quality and loudness of the sounds we hear; plus, air denSity, humidity, and wind direction all act to govern the distance at which a sound can be heard, the direction, the in- Classified Ads Bring Quick Results tensity, and even the quality of the sound. In fulfilling its role in the defence of Canada, the RCAF flies both propeller and jet- powered aircraft and both typ- es cause a certain amount of noise. The main source of noise on the former is the propeller it- self, causing a series of pres- sure waves in the atmosphere. The noise emitted by the pro- peller depends on the number of blades, their thickness, length, width, speed of rotation and so on. The sources of the noise in aircraft employing the turbo- jet engines are somewhat dif- ferent from those, and are four in number: 1. The sound of the compres- sor turbines in the air intake. 2. The pressure wave caused by the heated exhaust gases leaving the tail of the jet at high velocities. 3. The vibrations of the walls of 'the combustion chamber and the tail pipe, especially with the firing of the afterburner. 4. The sonic boom. Not Aircraft This sonic boom is not caused by the aircraft itself, but occurs simply because of the fact that an object is travelling faster than the speed of sound. Any object can cause one. For instance, the crack of a whip is actually the noise of the tip of the whip travelling faster than the speed of sound and causing a sonic boom of its own. As an aircraft flies through the air in subsonic flight, the air ahead of it parts to flow smoothly around the fuselage and over the wing. As the aircraft reaches the speed of sound, the air is un- able to get out of the way fast enough and a layer of compres- sed air is built up at the for- ward (or leading) edges of the aircraft. So, even if an aircraft were completely silent when in op- eration, and its engines gener- ated no noise at all, if it ex- ceeded the speed of sound, these pressure waves would still be set up and a sonic boom created. This pressure layer, or wave of compressed air, travels with the aircraft as long as it flies at or above the speed of sound and is the supersonic boom. RECENT VISITORS WITH MRS. 'A. HEBDEN Holiday visitors with Mrs. A. Hebden in the last two weeks: Mr. and Mrs. Will Snell, Dor- chester; Mr. and Mrs. Bob Appleton and son Ross, London; Mr. and Mrs. W. S. Hebden, Lucan; Mr. and Mrs. E. W. Hebden, London; Mrs. W. A. Hart, Woodstock; Mary B. Hart, B.A,, Niagara Falls; Miss M. E. Muir, Lakeside; Mrs. Alex Sutherland, Woodstock; Miss Esther Murray and Miss A. Clark, East Zorra. This dispels the belief of many people that the boom is heard because the aircraft has at that particular moment brok- en the sound barrier, but the "boom" actually travels with the aircraft as long as its speed with the craft since its take-off and the noise has been heard by all persons in its flight path. Thus, the noise area residents hear, may have been travelling is at or above the speed of sound. How to Reduce The RCAF has five methods it is employing to reduce the sonic booms: noise suppressors, baffles and blast walls, 'flight corridors, flight procedures, and minimum altitude for super- sonic flight. This final procedure is the one that affects this area pri- marily, due to the fact there are no regular jet airports in the vicinity. By regulating ,the height of supersonic craft, the' RCAF is working on the theory that as ripples in a pond gradually be- come smaller as they spread out from the point a stone hits the water, so sound waves dim- inish in strength as they spread ,out. To lessen the force with which the pressure wave, or sonic boom, reaches the ground, the RCAF has forbidden its pilots to exceed the speed of Service REX FILM 2 for 99c 127 - 120 - 620 GILLETTE WORLD SERIES SPECIAL — FREE RAZOR With 15 Super Blue Blades, 1.00 BRECK HAIR SET MIST 14 oz. 1.89 RUBINSTEIN WATER LILY CLEANSING CREAM reg. 4.50 • Sale 2.95 VOS HAIR SPRAY WITH SHAMPOO FREE 15 oz,, value 4,23—Sale 2.98 7 oz., value 3.14—Sale 1.99 For Hay Fever Victims ACTIFED TABLETS, 24's, 1.95 ACTIFED SYRUP, 4 oz, 1.95 — -- Hot Water Bottle Special Up to $4.00 Value Special $1.49 sound at an altitude of less than 30,000 feet, or to fly over built-up areas at supersonic speeds. To fulfill its domestic obliga- tions such as Search and Res- cue, training, Army support, and mercy flights, as well as its commitments to N O R A D, NATO and the United Nations, the RCAF maintains around- the-clock operations. In performing these missions, the RCAF recognizes that pub- lic discomfort may be caused by aircraft noises and is doing its utmost to alleviate the pro- blem. Stakes Are High Of course, all these regula- tions are subject to the require- ment of military operations., When jet aircraft are on a mis- sion to intercept and identify. a possible enemy aircraft, the prime objective must be speed and efficiency. Canadians may still be awak- ened by aircraft sounds, but this will occur only in the course of actual 'operations when the stakes are very much higher than a few minutes of lost sleep, otherwise most sup- ersonic booms will be heard in daylight hours only—as one of the sounds of progress.
