The Boeing wind tunnel has 100 microphones (on at least one traveling pickup) so they can create a virtual three-dimensional model of the sound waves. They demonstrate that the areas of concern are the landing gear and control surfaces, especially in the gaps that open up when a flap or elevron articulates.
