Since 2003, when the inaugural supersonic commercial plane was retired due to its engine failure and subsequent crash, demand for air travel has continued to grow. Over the same time, aircraft technology and material design have improved dramatically in areas like carbon fiber, aviation fuel, and software. Supersonic travel will offer a variety of benefits — faster travel, more time at the final destination, reduced traveler’s post-flight fatigue, more often travel, increased accessibility to far-flung places, and more.
Boom Supersonic is a commercial airplane manufacturer that builds supersonic airliners designed for speed, safety, and sustainability. Boom was founded on the philosophy that they needed to overcome the challenges of supersonic passenger flight, not surrender to them. They aim to make supersonic aircraft affordable for business travel - the company's ultimate goal is a routine supersonic flight for everyone.
