Video: The Past and Future of Supersonic Transport
The future of supersonic transport looks bright as new companies within the aerospace industry introduce new aircraft designs.
Since 2003, there have been no civilian supersonic transport. The noise pollution of loud sonic booms has inhibited the development of any commercial aircraft. However, in recent years, new designs have risen to help combat the problem and reintroduce commercial supersonic flight.
Let’s explore the past of supersonic transport with aircraft like the Concorde and look forward to new supersonic aircraft emerging within the aerospace industry.
