    Congratulations to Boom on the first flight of their test bed aircraft.
    Their emphasis on safety is commendable.

      It's hardly proven safety at all except maybe by flying so slow, that could also be because of poor design.
      They need to prove attention to safety, not just in press briefings. After all Boeing have said the same in the past while at the same time cutting quality control and safety checks to effectively zero.

    No need to re-invent the wheel again. Just bring the Concorde back, just add some updates here and there to airframe from composite materials.

      In most early test flights wheels stay down for safety.

    Even if they solve the noise problem, supersonic travel will prove to be uneconomic and ecologically unsound.
