How loud would a sonic boom be if there were no engine noise?

the aileron is a hinged surface normally located n the trailing edge of the wing. the way they (one left and one right) work is by increasing the lift on one side or the other of the wing (left or right) and decreasing the lift on the other. lets look at the left wing for a moment. if you move the control to turn left, the left aileron moves up into the airflow and not only forces the air to move up the aileron surface but by doing that, forces the wing down. it also lessens the lift on the left wing, on the right wing, the aileron moves down, kind of like a flap and increases lift on the right making the entire wing surface roll to the left that in conjunction with the other surfaces of the aircraft are how the pilots are able to make coordinated turns and if needed keep the wings level while in turbulence
