“son of Concorde,” Seriously ... does anybody at NASA actually call it that?

The SR71 sits on a museum floor obeying the law of gravity ...
Back when it did fly, it also created a huge sonic boom. And that brings to the X-59. “X” as in eXperimental ... the experiment here is to develop “boomless” supersonic flight.

ticket prices will be so high Yeah ... becoming a TEST PILOT for an eXperimental aircraft is very expensive.

But will it create deadly holes in the ozone layer like the media claimed the Concord did?

I have that album on vinyl, which should give an idea of how long I’ve had it.
To: Libloather
3 and a half hours? Its about a 5 hour flight now. That’s not much of a time savings.
