I just love spending time in rush hour traffic \s
- kachapopopow 2y agoHaving to drive in bumper to bumper traffic versus chilling in a large chair either working on a laptop, watching a movie or just sleeping (or well if you can't afford it in which case this is very irreverent due to ticket prices).
- rockemsockem 2y agoLarge????
- kachapopopow 2y agoI'm assuming large here because that's what the tickets will cost for super sonic flight.
- rockemsockem 2y agoYou have no reliable way to project the cost of supersonic flight 50 years in the future. It will come down. That's all I'm certain of. I'm sure people told the Wright brothers similar things. You're simply being extremely short-sighted. Which is very ironic since you're also talking about climate change concerns around this post.
- stetrain 2y agoThe original comment was comparing this service to current first-class airline service.
- yread 2y ago> chilling in a large chair either working on a laptop, watching a movie or just sleeping Are you talking about trains?
- stetrain 2y agoThey're comparing to first class on existing airliners.
- stetrain 2y agoThere are known, demonstrated ways to reduce rush hour traffic that decrease energy and emissions per person. Supersonic flight will likely increase emissions per person by a larger proportion than the time saved per person. It's a brute-force energy-wasting solution to the problem.
