Is Supersonic Coming Back? The Future Supersonic Jet – Boom Supersonic
Recently, I visited Boom Supersonic HQ to see their latest development on the supersonic airplane. I met with the Boom Supersonic founder and CEO Blake Scholl who talked about the timeline of supersonic and why we need supersonic. I was given a behind-the-scenes tour of the XB-1 demonstrator that Boom is currently building and testing.
After flying on the Concorde at twice the speed of sound, I am really keen to see if supersonic travel can happen in the future in a more sustainable fashion. For supersonic fans, the next to watch is the XB-1 experimental airplane flying in the sky.
