Anyone got any idea what's the status of that X1 thingy which was supposed to be like Concord fast but still affordable by peasant class

I know next to nothing about aviation or economics, but my gut feeling is a plane with ~80 seats for international flights will be expensive.

Yup, boom supersonic indeed. I remember reading somewhere that they were also working on a ~200 capacity model

Also, it sounds like a lot of GHG emissions per passenger-mile.
