I feel like they are playing themselves here. The NIMBYs only need to look at the company name and know they don't want that near their back yard.

- raldi 6y agoThe plane will be known by the product name, not the company name. >99% of the public couldn't tell you the name of the company that built the Concorde.
- speedgoose 6y agoIf the name of one of the companies making the concorde was Boom, I'm very sure people would know it.
- bb611 6y agoIn fairness to the public, the two companies involved in producing Concorde have each changed names 3+ times after merging with other major aircraft and industrial concerns, and are each now fading memories as part of the two largest European aerospace & defense conglomerates. I'd actually wager a significant portion of the population would correctly say Airbus, but for the wrong reasons - it's the only French aerospace company they can think of. I did a straw poll among some friends and got a lot of "I don't know what that is. Do you mean the grape?"
