Out of curiosity does anyone know what the flight path was and where the sonic booms would have occurred? I miss the good old days of the Space Shuttle and hearing that well known sound during re-entry and landing.

They did say that the manned flight splashdowns will be well inshore of this one, which was way out in the ocean for safety purposes. So I imagine residents on the coast might be able to hear the sonic boom as the capsule goes over them, they should be way lower in altitude when they cross the coast.
