Why You Will Never Fly on a Supersonic Passenger Jet

How incredible would it be if you could travel across the entire globe in just a few short hours? It would be amazing, if supersonic jets weren't abandoned, but they are for a good reason. Why would supersonic passenger planes never make it to the mass public? Check out our new video where one bad accident is all it took for supersonic jets to be too dangerous for general passenger transportation.

You've got serious quality control problems (or, even, basic knowledge and intelligence issues), buddy: 1. As others have pointed out, the Bell X-1 was rocket-powered, not jet-propelled. If you didn't already know that, you should consider yourself an aviation ignoramus. 2. As others have pointed out, the Concorde was not the only commercial supersonic airliner. The Soviets flew the TU-144, nicknamed the "Concordski" for a short period, but it was a commercial, supersonic airliner. 3. A rigorous program of training is a "regimen", not a "regiment." A regiment is a military formation usually consisting of at least two battalions. These are not terms that literate people confuse. 4. You twice mentioned the "exuberant" costs of the Concorde, and even put it in your graphic. "Exuberant" means "filled with lively energy or excitement," something of which money is incapable. I think you mean "exorbitant," meaning "unreasonably expensive." Again, these are not words that literate people confuse. 5. The graphic you used for the DeHavilland Comet didn't look even remotely like a Comet. Not even close. The Comet had two engines on each side built into the wings, not hanging below them in nacelles, almost at the wing roots. Its appearance was very distinctive and looks nothing like the graphic you used. So, you can't get basic aviation facts right and you totally flunk middle-school level vocabulary. How is a viewer to trust anything else you say without going out and personally verifying it? You've basically flushed any credibility you might have. I'm going to give a few of your other videos a try, but if they follow the same standard, that's the last you will see of me.

Well actually i was on a supersonic flight😁 Winter of 2013 AA 777 to Frankfurt Intl from JFK, we hit an insane tailwind that got us over the speed of sound over the Atlantic. It was pretty awesome because the pilots told us over the pa, he said this is extremely rare and he only had this happen to him 3 other times. It was weird because we felt no difference inside the cabin but it was pretty cool knowing we were faster than sound for a short period of time. something i’ll never forget

Yes, this can happen if the plane can ride a jetstream. However, this is not a real speed of sound, because you move together with the medium (air). You were moving over the speed of sound only as compared to the ground. Otherwise, the plane would fall apart.
