Boom: Supersonic speeds for everyday travel with Blake Scholl | E2006
Boom Supersonic’s Blake Scholl joins Jason to discuss the future of supersonic flight, Boom's vision and test flights, the evolution of hardware startups, the future of autonomous aviation, and much more!
Key Points
- Aviation safety has significantly improved through iterative learning from accidents, but the insistence on perfect safety before deploying technologies like self-driving cars can actually hinder progress.
- Boom Supersonic aims to make supersonic travel economically viable and accessible, with a goal of reducing ticket prices to around $5,000 and enabling business-class travelers to fly twice as fast.
- Blake Scholl emphasizes the importance of integrating proven technologies in initial hardware development phases, as seen with Boom's approach to supersonic flight, before pursuing more innovative solutions.
