Also depends on how noisy it would be as Concorde in its latter days struggled for flight routes due to sound pollution. Hypersonic gotta be bloody loud when it hits.

That and the fact that no one could ever afford to ride the Concord so the whole thing was just scrapped.

It was scrapped because one blew up in Paris and they never got the numbers back onboard after that.

Edit: I'm sure I saw the other day it would fly at a much higher altitude due to 'sound pollution' (fucking stupid) and the risks caused by the speed.

I wonder what kind of restraints you would have to wear to help ease the G forces. Or perhaps they would ease into any turns they might make.

Years to come it will be almost instant between travelling. Then we can actually look into travelling successfully through space.

The turns would be very slight, I imagine.
