I thought I noticed a bit of a dip too. Doing that type of run over the water that low, he my have run into cooler, more dense pockets of air.

Once I went to Edwards Air Force Base for the air show and got to see and hear Chuck Yeager breaking the sound barrier. The boom was one thing but seeing the shock wave hitting the high clouds was something I'll never forget. It was amazing to have such a hugh crowd of people so quite to listen for the boom and then to hear them gasp at the sight. I think I said something like "oh my God!".
