The first supersonic flight of the Boom XB-1, an aircraft that could revolutionize civil aviation
The XB-1 is a demonstrator for the future Boom Overture, which aims to be the first supersonic passenger aircraft made in the United States and the first operational in the world after the retirement of the Concorde. The aircraft will measure 61 metres in length (a size very similar to that of the famous Franco-British supersonic aircraft).
