It was done in Final Cut Express. I showed up about two minutes before the booms but was able to catch everything just in time.

That thing is a BRICK! This vid gives a great idea of the extreme rate of descent as well as forward speed. Freaky!

I love how people can actually support pilots. People don't realize how hard that shit gets.

why would there be a sonic boo if the shuttle is already so low over that area ?

Nice job with the editing... what software did u use? Nice shot of the landing too... My cam caught the sound of the booms really good, but my batteries died before the landing
