How do airliners do it?


They overfly populated areas all the time.


During early flight test? I don't *think* so...

Our Renton and Everett plants are in populated areas, so the first
flights are necessarily over populated areas. The Flight Test center is
at Boeing Field which is in an even more densely populated area. Some
flight testing is done over at Moses Lake, or, IIRC, down at Edwards
AFB, but a substantial portion is over populated areas.
