Concorde, the
fastest passenger airplane on earth, have been banned because its low
efficiency and high noise. But the engineer still think about how can make the
fast passenger plane that have good efficiency. This airplane design comes from
the designers of Skylon, a fairly practical spaceplane and airplane designs,
comes the Mach 5 A2 Concorde replacement. The A2 are more affordable and longer
lasting versions of the Skylon advanced airplane.

This airplane was named A2. I still dont know what the meaning of A2. However,
unlike Concorde, the A2 vehicle has exceptional range (approx 20,000 km both
subsonic and supersonic) and is therefore able to service a large number of
routes whilst simultaneously avoiding supersonic overflight of populated areas.
Its good subsonic advanced technology performance enables it to service
conventional subsonic overland routes.

The ticket rates, of course will more expensive than ordinary passenger plane.
Analysis of the Development, Production and Operating costs suggests that the
average ticket price would be comparable to an existing Business class ticket.
The A2 vehicle could capture all of the current business and first class
traffic due to the greatly reduced journey time of 4.6 hours compared to the
current 22 hours. This will be great for people who need the fastest ride to
get around on earth.
