anyone care to compute the carbon footprint of that capability as compared to a skype conference???

Do you think people only travel for face to face meetings that could be done remotely? No one would waste that kind of money for nothing.

What's been missed is it's a time machine. Leaving Australia for LA, you can arrive almost a day before you left, reminding me of another hypersonic plane's slogan...."when it absolutely, positively had to be there yesterday."

Going to need to forget this video to partake in this flight.

Yeah, I'll stick to Skype...or whatever

As he's currently running at about 75% complete obliteration upon landing, I think I'll take a boat.

well, the 1% gotta spend their money somehow. They're probably getting bored of buying stocks and real estate by now.
