Bah, people need to shut up. Its like hearing a bigass thunderstorm. Personally I think sonic booms are ing awesome. Should we ban thunderstorms too? |

You are right, they do dictate how it goes, those pictures are merely an example. The seating they choose, they can have different types of business seats, different layout, it's really ALL upto the airline and not the manufacturer.

The sonic boom was never really a problem, they'd break the sound barrier well up into 50+ thousand feet. It's biggest problem, was simply the noise it made at take off and landing. It was old technology and hence LOUD. Also quite expensive to operate, and with very little seating, the tickets were high priced. |

But I'll be damned if it wasn't the most badass piece of commercial airline technology ever. |

I liked that twinkling sparkles from the startrekwars where the people just zapped around from one place to the other.
I think it was called the transistor. |
