WASHINGTON - The U.S. Federal Aviation Administration said on Monday it is moving to rewrite testing rules to allow for the eventual return of civil supersonic air travel.
Later this week, the FAA will issue a proposed rule for “special flight authorization for supersonic aircraft,” Elwell said. This is the first step toward revising the FAA’s 45-year-old rules governing supersonic transport. The rule “will provide a streamlined, clear line of sight on how to gain approval to conduct flight testing. This is a necessary, key step for further research and development in an emerging segment – and ultimately bring their aircraft to market,” Elwell added in remarks provided by the FAA.
Why? Nobody has any supersonic airliners and nobody has any plans to build any.
what a beautiful airplane...

History repeats Itself. There are times 550 mph seems slow, Once doing 667 mph TPA- BOS with pilots breaking FAA rules only to arrive early , with no gate open to deplane. I believe if the airways are clear. Full Throttle. Fly Those Friendly Skies.
Do these things emit less than regular planes? Can we afford this, environmentally?
