"Workers repair the damage to Ottawa's new Uplands Airport after a sonic boom - created by a F-104 Starfighter-smashed the glass and twisted the window frames of the almost completed building on August 5, 1959.
The still new-to-Canada Starfighter was to be demo-ed to Cabinet Members and reporters the next day.
The plane was apparently only 500 feet above the mostly-glass airport when it exceeded the sound barrier. Damage was so extensive that the opening of Uplands was delayed for almost a year."

60 years ago... October 17, 1962 NASA testpilot John McKay, a former Navy pilot, who as a civilian research pilot/aeronautical engineer, made 30 flights in the North American Aviation  X-15 hypersonic rocket planes from October 28, 1960, until September 8, 1966. Note he wore an Accutron Astronaut microsonic tuning fork GMT pilot wristwatch on a coffin link bracelet. Accutron stands for  “accuracy through electronics” and these watches were worn by 8 of the 12 X-15 test pilots, the “Mercury Seven” astronauts, the crew of Gemini III (March 1965) and Gordo Cooper onboard MA-9 and Gemini V. 2020 marked the 60th anniversary of Accutron as the world’s first electronic watch, a microsonic timepiece.

In January of 1967, a United States Air Force F-104C Starfighter of the 479th Tactical Fighter Wing intercepted an unidentified spacecraft entering our air space. To this day, details of the incident remain sketchy and convoluted.
