BOOM now says they'll have the world's first supersonic glider by 2028.
Ticket prices have dropped from an outrageous $100 down to a more reasonable $50.
United has revised their "Supersonic is Here!" advertising campaign to "We're Starting to
Get a Bit Nervous".
One of the glider pilots working on this thing has been promoted to CEO, as the current
one intends to spend more time with his family.

I'm confused Eric. You do hundreds of postings responding to the jackass in Florida, and
you object to something that actually has to do with soaring??
How is a supersonic airliner related to soaring?

You are missing the sarcasm. Rolls Royce has pulled out of the BOOM project, leaving it engineless. Therefore, suitable for Pawnee tows behind OBTP.

That's understandable. Eric is of the mindset that gliders aren't real gliders unless
they have engines, which obviously leaves out Boom.
He may also be unaware of the involvement of several Colorado glider pilots in the
project, which brought their love of carbon fiber into the design. It's probably good
they don't have engines, cause if they went really fast it would melt.
