    Already had that in the 1960s - if your daddy was a Bush and your middle initial was W.

    Will we have affordable, regularly scheduled commercial SST service? Not likely - the only reason current jets fly as fast as they do is because it maximizes their ROI, with market forces if they could go slower and save money they would.

    There are real costs to travelling that much faster, and most people aren't willing to pay the difference.
