Scope and Contents

Woodrow W. Bussey and his minor child are suing the Administrator of the Federal Aviation Agency for conducting sonic boom tests on them without their consent, which they argue is unconstitutional and violates their Fifth Amendment rights. They are seeking an injunction to stop the testing and declare it unconstitutional. They claim that the testing has caused damage and is a dangerous precedent that could lead to further government control without consent. They are requesting the court to permanently enjoin the defendant from further testing without their consent.
