The Boom Overture is marketed as "The world’s fastest airliner". There are 130 "orders and pre-orders" at the time of this writing.

The "planned introduction", whatever that means, is in 2029.

For a Yes I will accept test flights. But they must be with an aircraft that more or less looks like the 3D concept art they have at the moment: Delta wing, large enough for at least 60 passengers, top speed above Mach 1.

The supersonic part is a notable requirement for this to resolve Yes. Preferably verified by non-Boom sources but I may be persuaded.

  • Update 2025-02-18 (PST) (AI summary of creator comment): If the project changes ownership or is rebranded but the core team or project continuity remains, it will still count as Boom Overture.

    • A change in the name (e.g., to something like "Airbus A900") does not affect the resolution if the same team carries on the work.

    • The project must continue under the same technical and developmental guidance for the purposes of this market.
