the X-59 Quesst mission is poised to tackle one of aviation’s biggest challenges: making supersonic flight over land feasible again.

Then I suppose they had better address leg room.

It strikes my eye like something straight out of 1977.

50 years later and it’s only 70% as fast as Concorde. Even Boom Technology’s Overture will only be 85% as fast as Concorde.

Smart to use appropriate components that work, no need to reinvent the wheel, particularly if you’re Lockheed. I very much doubt that there’s going to be a regular-income market for a new SST, particularly if the kinda zany-sounding suborbital point-to-point travel via SpaceX’s Starship comes about.
