What Ending the U.S. Ban on Supersonic Flight Means for the Future of Travel

Concorde’s last flight has been a retired supplier for 22 years, 1.345 miles per hour (2.179 kilometers per hour), a retired supplier. In these speeds, you can fly in about three hours from London to New York. For a long time, the United States continues to restrict the SuperSonic flight over the lands of land Limited and the rapidly restricting trade planes to fly faster than the voice. Today, those super fast and super loud flights can be returned.

President Donald Trump signed On Friday, an executive order instructed to determine the standard of civil supersonic flights, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), the Silent Aircraft Noise certificate standard in 1973. The decision will show the path to faster routes, if companies can understand the planes to make their aircraft more calm and more affordable.

Airplanes create high, explosive sound due to shock waves created by approximately 767 miles in 1 or 767 miles (hourly per hour), excessive speeds. He sounds like a high lightning and will scare people inhabited by people living in the cities where superpersonic planes fly. As a result, the FAA, on April 27, 1973, when the teaching entry into force, then aerospace technology did not develop enough to resolve the issue of noise; Since then, research showed ways to soften the sounds of noisy flights.

A Colorado-based company, called a supersonic plane, called Seizes the boom. His current prototype is designed to fly in Mach 1.7 while carrying up to 64-80 passengers in the XB-1, 680 passengers on the board. Boom naturally as a US company in the market today It was greeted the decision. In late January, Boom Supersonic flew experimental planes faster than the vote for the first time. Boom was interested in carriers such as American Airlines and United Airlines.

Before we do not expect ourselves, the leadership came to the opposite rules of the ban. Trump implementation decision focused on termination of a silent speed limit, as long as the aircraft does not produce a sonic boom on the site. “The decree instructs the FAA administrator, society to set up a standard for noise voice certificate, which considers the administration, economic point and technological expediency, technological expediency and technological expediency. In addition, the latest events in aerospace engineering “Supersonic flight is not only possible, but is safe, sustainable and commercially favorable.”

NASA works in its own solution to soften the effects of Sonic boom. Agency earlier this year X-59 fired the engine of researchplanesdesigned to fly faster than the sound but in a sharp reduced noise. “The following people say they will hear Sonic ‘traffic jams, not booms, if they write NASA statement. The plane is designed to reduce the change of pressure flowing over the ground, and thus reduces the sound. The engine of the X-59 engine is installed on the plane, which reduces the amount of noise from the plane.

In addition to the noise, it was a commercial supersonic flight critic for the adverse effect on the environment. Supersonic plane consumes more fuel. Concorde burned 22 tons of fuel per hour – a Boeing 747, which could carry four times more passengers in the transport and the environment.

To help resolve the negative environmental impact, Boom says it will work on sustainable alternative fuels. This issue cannot solve this issue fully because the higher planes need to fly at a higher altitude, the air has a subtle and fewer generation and heat generation. Higher heights in the strikes of Earth, the waste on the plane lasted 20 times longer Aerospace American. NASA says it is trying to find solutions for these difficulties.

Supersonic flights are also expensive, expensive operation costs and premium services in extremely high tariffs. For example, concorde, the cost of fuel was not profitable as the profit from a flight exceeds the profit. Airways need to understand a continuous model to offer customers for a faster flight, hoping to enter silence.

The woman’s removal could be the first step, but there is a long way to go before the starting routes faster in the heavens.
