SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: SUMMARY: I. Abstract NASA is proposing construction of a Low Boom Flight Demonstration (LBFD) experimental aircraft, aka X-plane. This information collection will enable NASA to pre-test methods to collect information from individuals to determine community response to the new, quieter sonic booms, prior to the start of flight testing the X-plane. No public exposure to any form of sonic boom will occur during the pre-testing phase. The pre-test will be conducted by telephone interview. NASA wants to evaluate telephone surveys to assess prompt public response associated with experiencing low amplitude sonic booms over multiple, geographically dispersed communities. Responses will be voluntary. The new X-plane is designed to produce low amplitude sonic booms. Ultimately, flight testing of the X-plane is intended to (1) demonstrate and validate the technology necessary for civil supersonic flights that create low amplitude sonic booms, and (2) assess E:\FR\FM\09JNN1.SGM 09JNN1
