Supersonic Jet That Could Reach New York From London In JUST 90 Minutes
04 March 2021
Now you can travel from London to New York in just 90 minutes by the new Supersonic jet. The makers of a supersonic jet revealed what passengers can expect from the extraordinary flight.
Inside the Spike S-512 Supersonic Jet cabin, would be a large seating area, which is capable of seating 18 people.
The specialty is that this can be converted to beds or a dining area with flat-screen TVs.
There will no cabin windows on the plane, as the structural support required for windows tend to create drag and add weight to the aircraft. Instead, large screens on the sides of the cabin will give a full panoramic view for the passengers to enjoy.
Each jet is priced at USD 120 million, for a total order potential of USD 2.4 billion. Aerion says the AS2 will carry 8 to 12 passengers in a 30-foot-long cabin at speeds as fast as 990 mph.
With a range of up to 5,466 miles, the AS2 cuts transatlantic travel time by 3 hours and shortens trans-Pacific routes by 6 hours or more. Seating on the aircraft is convertible, so it can be adapted for sleeping, sitting or even holding conferences.
Images of the galley show a fancy coffee machine, built-in sink and counter space as well as a large fridge with chilled drinks.
While the flights won’t be cheap, they could eventually be a similar price to business class tickets.
