Rolls Royce Ends Boom Supersonic Partnership
Regarding Boom there are only two reasonable conclusions one can reach:1. They are a Theranos-style operation2. They are a Madoff-style operationI, a lone aerospace engineer working out of my garage in my spare time, have a better chance of achieving supersonic flight than Boom does.Even their technology demonstrator is an obvious scam. It demonstrates nothing. It does not demonstrate the ability to design, build, or maintain a supersonic passenger airplane, and it doesn't demonstrate any new technologies or materials.The bloatiest of bloated old-school defense contractors can throw together a supersonic prototype for less than $100 million, in fewer than 7 years.
