Sigh. I want them to compete, but the reality is that no-one has made an economically viable SST despite half a century of trying. If there's anything that modern air travel proves it is that the price of the ticket far outweighs ANY other factor, and SSTs. are not capable of being cheaper than subsonic transport. At least not with our current paradigm of energy/fuel being a major cost of flying.
