Supersonic Business Jet Unveiled

The article reads like someone's fantasy imaginings, if you can get past the typos and grammatical errors. Nice pictures though.

Will any of us here be alive when a true successor to Concorde flies?

My friend , yes I, you and some others may not be around to witness the Event . And so will be so many others who have a much better right to such happenings , notably Wright Brothers . So , dear Friend why fret ?

I will be around! I will probably even fly one! not to put out your camp fire or anything....this is the way Aviation goes my friend!

Sorry for the addendum , it is so not only for Aviation , BUT for every aspect of human growth ! It is a universal truth . That is why the Universe ever so dynamic and so changing .

This project is very pie in the sky, but it has some UK government funding.

Victor Engel, you hit it right on the money, this is pure fantasy, something concocted after sniffing some strong stuff. As for the price, a mere $ 80 million???. A top of the line Gulfstream or Bombardier Global jets cost right now around $ 55 millo each in 2011 dollars and cruise at Mach .85. Extrapolate this a bit and the SSBJ might cost well over $ 500 million. Any takers besides the oil rich sheiks.

Well, if buzz words could get a project off the ground, this one would be flying long before 2021.
