Emptiness and Shock Waves from High Velocity Shells
The passage explains a shell creates a vacuum after its air wake, dangerous for aircraft that cross it. Air collapses into the void, producing a pressure surge similar to thunder. It notes airplanes have been shot down by such vacuum effects in war, citing a German two seater crashing near American lines and the pilot dying.
