I've seen it on video on a close approach to spectators on an aircraft carrier by an F-14 Tomcat (80 are still in Iran where we were training the Shah's pilots before the Iranian student US Embassy occupation and resulting hostage crisis, they say because the Savak, secret police were spying on them in the US) and there's no way it was going by that close and breaking the sound barrier. The F-101 Voodoo was once stationed at Calverton Navy base on LI and I think they used to. I saw the last two F-14 Tomcats fly over there I think years ago. I once met the F-14 test pilot Tom Gwynne of the "Cradle of Aviation" on Long Island and I think sent him the short F-14 cloud video.
