First US Airline To Sign On With Boom Supersonic
United Airlines has announced a commercial agreement with Denver-based Boom Supersonic to add aircraft to its global fleet as well as a cooperative sustainability initiative – a move that facilitates returning supersonic speeds to aviation. Under the terms of the agreement, United will purchase 15 of Boom’s ‘Overture’ airliners, once Overture meets United’s safety, operating and sustainability requirements, with an option for an additional 35 aircraft.
