It turns out supersonic aircraft are just like buses: You wait years for one, and then two come along at once.
Now it is the time to supersonic aircrafts. They just like buses after some years. Planes manufactures and designers at Paris air show have introduce the concepts of “Son of supersonic”
EADS’s Zero Emission Hyper Sonic Transport (ZEHST), the first air craft powered by bio-fuel that made from seaweed, carrying the passengers above the Earth’s atmosphere and dramatically cutting flight times
EADS says the planes have three types of engines
-Conventional Jets
-Rockets and supersonic
-“Ramjets”
And the speed of these supersonic Jets at Mach 4, around 5,000 km/h that would cut of the time from Paris to Tokyo from 11 hours to 2.5 hours
“The future in flight” the creators of Hyper Mach says it will fly at twice the speed of Concorde linking network to Dubai in two hours and, 20 minutes, the passengers fly around the world in under 5 hours only.
Hyper Mach, “The other side of the world feel like it’s just down the road” CEO Richard Lugg said.
Lugg told to media and peoples that he had been inspired as a youngster watching the maiden voyage of Concorde, and had made it his "life's work" to come up with the next generation of hypersonic aircraft.
Lugg said that the jet will reach the speed of up to 3.6 mach that is the twice the speed of Concorde and flight at the height of 18,300 meter. It also promises reduced emissions and low noise. New technology means it will not create the "sonic boom" its predecessor was known for.
"This is being done with an eye to the future, but it has its feet firmly rooted in solid scientific research," Lugg insists.
Hyper mach is aiming to introduce airborne by June 2021 and will come before ZEHST.
Lugg says it will not a big plane it will seat just 21 passengers with VVIP luxury accommodation.
But experts have sounded a note of caution: These are not the first technologically complex concept planes -- and they may not be the last to end their days stuck on the drawing board.
"Good luck to them, but I'm very skeptical," said Murdo Morrison, editor of Flight International magazine.
He added: "The costs of designing something like this from scratch are astronomical, and even if they can get it to the prototype stage, that's not even half the battle, it's maybe 10%. Aerospace is littered with companies that went bust once they went into production.
"The science exists; we know planes can fly at supersonic speeds: Fighter aircraft do it, Concorde did it -- the technology is there, but the problem is making it work commercially.
"If it was easy, if it was possible, one of the big manufacturers would have done it already."
Now the aircrafts technology touches the new heights.
