An interesting bit of F-101 trivia: In the mid 1960s a friend, on a Christmas visit home unannounced, buzzed/flew over the ROTC class bldg in Lafayette, La to let his sister know he was home. It was reported he broke the sound barrier because of the double boom, along with two windows. I talked with him about ten years ago, after his retirement, about this. He said the afterburners don't usually ignite exactly at the same time on a 101, giving the double boom and the windows had been cracked for years. He did get in trouble, as several ROTC types got his number, and after landing at Chennault AFB, had to account. He was amazed that they could see the number during a high speed pass. I remember calling his Mom's house back then to see if he would be home for Christmas, and his sister said he was, but didn't know where. I asked how did she know, and she told me the story, and said, "Who else could it be but Pat?"
