How Loud Are the F-35 Jets, Really?
Here at City Cast Madison, we’ve lost count of how many times we’ve had to pause our podcast recordings to let a F-35 fighter jet fly by. The jets are loud, there’s no question about that. But just how loud? One retired Madisonian has made it his mission to document and collect data on just how much noise these warplanes make. Today, host Bianca Martin chats with Scott about his findings and how much louder Madison has gotten since the jets arrived in 2023.
