I would love to see domestic super sonic air travel. Sadly I don't think it will ever come to be. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oklahoma_City_sonic_boom_test

Sadly I don't think it will ever come to be. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oklahoma_City_sonic_boom_tests https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oklahoma_City_sonic_boom_tes... For international flights the technology is more than proven. It's purely a market problem. I wish the boom teem well.
