I like the design, a more elegant & simple 'Mini Concorde'
Plans to fly at 60,000' and at 1,451 mph; which is 100mph faster than the Concorde according to the article.

If they do become a reality, should I expect you to be riding one of these to your next business meeting?

$5000 round trip?
Isn't that only about double the normal ticket price?

I'm probably too old to be around when (if) it goes into service. If you work hard, live prudently, and invest wisely, you could do it.

I'm to frugal to ever pay so much for a flight.
