Capn Circus 06/27/18 8:05:43 PM #1:	"Boeing says the jet could get you anywhere in the world in just one to three hours. With top speeds exceeding 3,800 miles per hour, the trek from New York to London, for example, could take 120 minutes. Currently the trip takes around seven hours. Boeing (BA), the world's largest aircraft manufacturer, says the concept is still in the early stages of development. Key technical challenges will need to be solved before the company will even produce a prototype, Boeing spokesperson Brianna Jackson said Wednesday. It's possible the concept could become a reality in 20 to 30 years, Jackson said in an email." http://money.cnn.com/2018/06/27/technology/future/boeing-hypersonic-plane-concept/index.html --- "I think that man will be president right about the time when spaceships come down filled with dinosaurs in red capes" - Tom Hanks <cite>Capn Circus posted [p:904088306] in Boeing unv...
