Scram Sonic

Do you think air travel emergency stop will be successful?

Recently, the emergency stop jet was tested successfully. This led to speculation in the press of hypersonic air travel in the future. However, if we have to remember, this is not the first time you ride supersonic jet is performed. Already in the 60's, flying the Concorde supersonic passenger transport between the UK and France. Unfortunately, it was never accepted widely throughout the world as a result of the sonic boom it creates, as flies past. In such circumstances, do you believe that a hypersonic airplane carry air passengers never manages to become the new passenger aircraft of the future? Do you think that plane never replace conventional airliner uses now?

Dead as a Door Nail Technology has been here for almost 50 years and has not been used because it is fundamentally a bad idea. We tested scramjets Marquardt in 1950 and worked technoliogy. regular ramjet - with subsonic combustion - flew at Mach 4 and altitudes of over 100 thousand feet above the Lockheed x7. Scramjets worked in the wind tunnel. Unused why? Expensive and has no advantage. The Boeing BOMARC - Mach 2.5 interceptor - lost to Nike because Nike did the cheapest labor. Concorde climbed into the time - good, but I never would have taken it if someone else does not buy the ticket. And the Concorde was slow compared woith these things. While I'm at it, reserve cycle engine Liquid Air is so dead. Idea - airstrip spaceplane. I built a working model demonstration small scale of the lace. The same deal - very complicated.
