Why don't one of you guys do the math? I could do it if I had the time. A few back of the envelope estimates on density, temperature and shock wave pressure should yield the answer directly.

I may do it if I find a few moments of free time as I am also curious as to the actual result.

Somebody jump on it -- Dick
