Welcome to our first full episode! In addition to our main episode topic, this week kicks off our two regular segments: In the News and Featured Photos. Check out instagram (@abovethewing.podcast) to view the photos we mention in the episode. In the bulk of our episode, we discuss the latest news in Supersonic Flight: Boom Supersonic’s Overture, which United Airlines recently announced they would add to their fleet by 2029. We’ll also reminisce about the infamous Concorde, the first supersonic aircraft, compare and contrast how it differs from Overture, and diagnose why Concorde was ultimately unsuccessful.
