Description

Boeing 787 Supersonic business jet

A supersonic business jet (SSBJ) would be a small business jet, intended to travel at speeds above Mach 1.0. Typically intended to transport about ten passengers, SSBJs are about the same size as traditional subsonic business jets. Larger commercial supersonic transports such as the Aérospatiale/British Aerospace Concorde and Tupolev Tu-144 'Charger' had relatively high costs, and high noise, low range and some environmental concerns (although these problems were less evident in Concorde than the Tu-144).

Several manufacturers (notably Cessna) believe that many of these concerns can be dealt with at a smaller scale. In addition, it is believed that small groups of high-value passengers (such as executives or heads of state) will find value in higher speed transport.

This is a great looking plane! It would have been nice for this to be what the 787 Dreamliner really looked like. Maybe something like this will see reality one day still. If not, well there's always dreams and DA!! ;)
