The presented paper shows the effect of local Mach number on the turbulent disturbance spreading angle relative to the wall and on lateral disturbance spreading angles. Almost all the disturbances angles relative to the wall were determined from investigations where hot-wire contours or hot-film surveys of a 'laminar' boundary layer were obtained. Lateral disturbance spreading angles were obtained from investigations of various conditions including turbulent bursts, reported observations of transverse contamination, and observed transitional flow. It is noted that the disturbance spreading angle relative to the wall seems to remain essentially invariant with Mach number, while the lateral spreading angle decreases sharply with increasing Mach number up to about 6. The good agreement between lateral disturbance spreading angle data and data for the variation of turbulent jet spreading angle with Mach number implies that in the lateral dimension, turbulence in a boundary layer may develop essentially free of wall constraints (similar to a free shear layer).
