Pictures must credit: Boom Supersonic A company building the world's fastest airliner has announced the successful flight of test prototype. The aircraft, dubbed XB-1, is the world's first independently developed supersonic jet. It did not fly supersonic for the test by maker Boom Supersonic. The XB-1 is a test prototype in the development of a passenger aircraft called Overture. The XB-1took to the air at the Mojave Air & Space Port in Mojave, California. Like Overture, XB-1 has state-of-the-art technologies to enable efficient supersonic flight including carbon fibre composites, advanced avionics, digitally-optimised aerodynamics, and an advanced supersonic propulsion system. Boom Supersonic founder Blake Scholl said: ”I've been looking forward to this flight since founding Boom in 2014, and it marks the most significant milestone yet on our path to bring supersonic travel to passengers worldwide." XB-1 was flown by Boom test pilot Bill "Doc" Shoemaker. He said:” The experience we have gained in reaching this milestone will be invaluable to Boom's revival of supersonic travel."
