Methods and systems for controlling a magnitude of a sonic boom caused by off-design-condition operation of a supersonic aircraft at supersonic speeds are disclosed herein. The method includes, but is not limited to, monitoring, with a processor, a weight of the supersonic aircraft and a distribution of fuel onboard the supersonic aircraft. The method further includes, but is not limited to, determining, with the processor, that there is a deviation of the weight of the supersonic aircraft from a design-condition weight. The method still further includes, but is not limited to, controlling, with the processor, a redistribution of the fuel onboard the supersonic aircraft to adjust an amount of fuel stored within a wing to minimize a twist in the wing caused by the deviation. Such redistribution will reduce the magnitude of the sonic boom caused by the deviation.
