Supersonic business jet revealed at Paris Air Show

In the era of speed passenger aircraft has become the current major problem for many people who want to move quickly from one country to another, so the company revealed Hypermach for passenger aircraft will make the miraculous planet is much smaller than what we see now:

Sonic Star will fly a maximum speed of 4.200 kilometers per hour (ie 1 mile per second!), Twice the speed of Concorde, which is the fastest passenger plane in the world. And distinguished in this plane is not only the speed but the level of flight, which will rise to 19 km for passengers can enjoy watching the earth rotate during their trip short!!

Was detected Sonic Star on Monday before the last Paris Air Show and is expected to be priced in the range of $ 80 million. Hypermach company has received funding for this project from the Ministry of Trade and Industry in Britain, and officials expect the company to begin using the aircraft commercially in 10 years in 2021.

Will operate the aircraft engine S-MAGJET hybrid energy-saving and environment-friendly, and will expand the new aircraft for 20 passengers. However the very small number of passengers you can predict what its contents within the plane of the well-being of His Excellency large:

The length of the plane 64 meters and a range of 11,112 kilometers and will be a top speed of Mach 3.6 (ie 1 mile per second!).

This video for the official announcement from the plane:

Will come to replace Concorde, which was the fastest airliner in the world, which has been suspended from service eight years ago because of high operating costs and lack of demand, also said Air France-owned Air France. But the main reason behind this was the crash of Concorde in 2000 when the plane crashed on a hotel near the airport Charles de Gaulle in France, killing 109 people (both on board) and 4 were in the hotel, which fell on him, forcing the company to increase security measures rising cost of return to the extent that people are reluctant to use this plane.

A supersonic business jet known as the SonicStar, capable of achieving speeds up to Mach 3.5, equivalent to 2,664 miles per hour was shown to the media on Monday, June 20, 2011 at the Paris Air Show, as reported by AV Web, Arabian Aerospace, GizMag, Next Big Future, FlightGlobal, and other news sources in dispatches appearing on Tuesday, June 21, 2011.

While still in concept form, over six years of research have already gone into designing a power plant for the project, which is headed by Richard Lugg, an aerospace engineer and designer who is chairman of HyperMach Aerospace Industries Inc., the company which has targeted delivering the 10 to 20 passenger aircraft by 2021.

Mr. Lugg also serves as CEO of SonicBlue Aerospace, the company that developed the turbine engine that drives the SonicStar aircraft.

Breakthroughs in aerodynamics and propulsion technology are designed to overcome the environmental and economic challenges that have stopped the development of supersonic aircraft in the past, as shown in the attached video clip and slide show.

The propulsion system for SonicStar is a new Hybrid engine, S-MAGJET 4000X designed by HyperMach’s engine partner UK-based SonicBlue. It is over 30% more fuel efficient then the Rolls-Royce/Snecma Olympus 593 engine that was used in the Concorde SST. This is judged to be record breaking technology for a supersonic engine design.

The two 54,700 pounds of thrust class S-MAGJET engines are optimized to fly the HyperMach SonicStar aircraft at 62,000 feet.

According to Mr. Lugg, the S-MAGJET 4000X power plants have a high thrust to weight ratio engine designs, reduced emissions and provide dramatic reduction of sonic boom overland. They also consume 30% less fuel than the Concorde, and fly at double that former SST's speed.

Typical supersonic flying time from John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) in New York to Sydney Kingsford Smith Airport (SYD) would be 5 hours with no sonic boom overland. Flight time for other routes include 1-3/4 hours from New York to Paris, and 2 hours and 20 minutes from New York to Dubai International Airport (DXB).
