Boom Supersonic already has its factory at the Greensboro, NC airport.

It doesn’t make a supersonic boom and will be better than the Concord of the 70s.

It’s about a 10 minute drive from my aunt’s house.

You beat me to the mention of Boom Supersonic!

Still saying that a 4 engine jet that seats 60 in business class isn’t going to be economically viable in commercial service. And it doesn’t have the range for really long flights where the speed would be a big selling point - it looks like it might have the range, at most, to go Atlanta or Charlotte to London. Dallas to Paris or Frankfurt would be out.

Boom is going to serve a niche market at best.
