Concorde booms and the Mysterious east Coast noises
Domenic J. Maglieri graduated from the University of Pittsburgh in 1951 with a B.S. degree in ME/AE and be- gan his career at National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA) doing research on aircraft noise con- trol and sonic boom. He retired from NASA in 1986 and joined Eagle Aero- nautics as Director for Projects. His
sonic boom involvement began in 1957 and has continued to the present, participating in every major sonic boom flight test program. He authored or co-authored over 160 publica- tions, 100 are on sonic boom. He is an ASA Fellow, a Board Certified Member of the INCE and an AIAA Associate Fellow.
