| Name | Mark J |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | The sonic booms were loud enough to make the pheasants squawk,roosting in the trees. I knew by the intensity of the flash that there would be a 2-3 minute delay on a likely boom, because of chelyabinsk, so I switched on by voice recorder which I keep in my pocket.I haven't checked it yet for quality. |
