Hope someone gets it done. Been reading about NY to Tokyo in 1 hr since I was a kid. Too bad the various SST projects were killed off in the 1970's.
Never criticize anyone until you've walked several kilometres in their shoes.
Because

1. You're now several kilometres away; and

2. You've got their shoes.

What?
How long does it take for Nor KimChees to blast one of their missiles and land in Hawaii? Way less than 45 minutes. Of course, the actual accuracy where it lands varies.

Yup, this and the V22 Osprey-like planes... I'm born in 75... and since then I always heard of them being ready for tomorrow...

SST... dead...
V22... flies... sometimes... But the day they will be safe enought for civilian use is still far... far... far ahead even if as flying ambulance they could be the perfect next-step.
