Interesting...my understanding is supersonic is really inefficient fuel wise.
So most airlines fly at around 80% of speed of sound, which is where the sonic drags starts to pick up. It's the fast you can go at higher fuel effeciency.

Supersonic flights will probably be really really expensive.

Will the environmentalists on the two coasts accept generating alot more CO2 and using a lot more fuel in order to fly over flyover country faster?
