Boom Supersonic is developing the Overture aircraft, aimed at reviving supersonic travel by carrying up to 80 passengers at Mach 1.7. While the aircraft is designed to operate on 100% sustainable aviation fuel, environmental concerns regarding energy consumption, carbon emissions, and noise pollution persist, with critics questioning the viability of such fuels. Despite these challenges, Boom's CEO Blake Scholl remains optimistic about technological advancements that could make supersonic travel feasible once again.
