Boom's first supersonic engine core is ~6-8 weeks away from hitting the test stand. This is exciting.
Also there's press misreporting that the whole Overture airplane is almost ready to fly. Unfortunately that's still several years away. Tons of work still to do.
Blake, ICYMI, in case you missed it Phil Lebeau interviewed Scott Kirby in Newark (EWR) at the route announcement event…. Asked if @United would have supersonic flights by 2035. Scott answered “Yes” …. @Lebeaucarnews#iwitnessed#1fan
The fact that @united will now serve a decent cut of steak with veggies and potatoes in first class on a <2h domestic flight is pretty rad.
It's like they're practicing how to make quick supersonic flights awesome!

Flying cars (eVTOLS) are not the future- they are the NOW
@USDOT’s Integration Pilot Program (eIPP) is how we are doing it 🚗
Visited @MyFDOT’s Suntrax testing site to see firsthand how this is all going to work
eVTOLS are coming to the real world THIS YEAR thanks to @POTUS’ goal for the U.S. to lead the world in INNOVATION 🇺🇸👇
The future of transportation is BRIGHT
@MyFDOT’s Suntrax in sunny Florida 🤩
This is first-EVER dedicated facility for both autonomous vehicle and eVTOL testing
And thanks to the Trump Administration, commercial test eVTOL flights will be launching across the sunshine state later this year 👀
It’s all part of our nationwide pilot program to reshape the way people and products move!
