Re: New - Supersonic Jet

It has no chance. Concorde failed for many reasons,one being not allowed to go supersonic over land.

Re: New - Supersonic Jet

Those two aircraft are concepts from Lockheed. In addition to these, they are working on another type of passenger aircraft that uses what is known as a box wing design. This type of wing reduces the sonic booms, and is therefore expected to be able to get the supersonic-speeds-over-land ban lifted.

There are other concepts from Boeing and Grumman. NASA awarded separate contracts to the 3 companies mentioned to investigate the feasibiltiy of it all.

I must delete some of the trivia I remember from my mind!
