Calendar Feature: January 2026
	*Better Living Through Rhinoplasty* In 2003, a strangely deformed Northrop Grumman F-5E was flown at Edwards AFB to validate design strategies that might someday lead to quieter supersonic aircraft. As part of the two-year SSBD (Shaped Sonic Boom Demonstration) program with NASA and DARPA, this was the first in-flight validation of untested theories that modifying an aircraft's shape could affect sonic boom intensity. Sensors compared sonic boom levels from an unmodified F-5 flying the same flight profiles. Measured test data matched engineers' predictions, with sonic boom levels reduced by one-third.
Psst... To avoid the gnawing 12-month period of suspense to see all 12 pieces (along with lots of aviation anniversaries (When did the first pig fly?), incredible trivia (What is Godzilla's "birthday"?), and outrageous quotes from people that should know better) place your order for the Aerocatures™ Calendar now!
