The Vision Vitesse is a supersonic, mid-sized commercial jet, capable of flying over Mach 2 speeds at 40.000ft. It uses quite some fuel, but it compensates this in speed!
Activation 7: Landing lights
Activation 8: All other lights
Trim: elevator trim...
VTOL: Flaps
Take-off can be done best at around 35% throttle. Even at only 15 to 20% throttle it has the same cruising speed as any "regular" commercial jet.
Best landing speed is at around 175mph with a full tank or 150mph with 20% fuel.

@mLk17 Yeah, thanks to you mate! Cheers :) I uploaded a special thanks! https://www.simpleplanes.com/a/Lku4bA/Thanks-for-3000-points
@JoeriV Round !
@JoeriV Hey ! you got 3000 points !
@JoeriV yeah it means speed =)
@mLk17 Nope, I know the word "vitesse" from thr football team. I think it means speed and I like the word so that's why :)
@JoeriV why vitesse ? are you french ?
@JoeriV Alright
@SyntheticL I believe it means speed :) From the football team and Google Translate.
Does Vitesse mean Height or Speed...? I remember i found this word several time when I try to make mods for a french game. (Yeah, wargame red dragon.)
@JoeriV Lol, nice
@SilverStar Je parle un petit Fransais. J'ai deux ballon, dans ton mon sac! Le chat, NOIR!
@JoeriV OK, and... what ?
@SilverStar j'ai un ballon
@SilverStar Cheers! :)
@Trainzo Thanks Trainzo!
Very nice plane . Great build .
Nice plane !
@WarHawk95 Rip, j'allais tenter aussi
@WarHawk95 non
Do you speak french ?
@Grroro You and me both! Hah, thanks! Have a good one :)
lul cool plane
@JoeriV yeah! I agree and if any manufacturers are planning to do so, I'm excited!
anyway, nice Airplane, forgot to upvote so imma make up for it ;-)
@Grroro necessary, no. Feasible, not currently, no.But if I gave you the choice to travel from whereever you are to your holiday destination on the other side of the planet, either in 14 hours or 5 hours, what would you pick? (Regardless of the price).
Also, aircraft manufacturers and instances such as NASA all know that shape and material are massive factors in both sonic boom noise and power needed for supersonic flight.
Supersonic flight is likely going to make a return in the near-future. This because the sound of the sonic boom is going to be greatly reduced and because there's going to be less powered required (thus less fuel) to reach supersonic speeds.
See the "Lockheed Martin X-59 QueSST" for reducing the sonic boom or look at "BOOM Supersonic" for passenger supersonic flight without the need of afterburner engines.
@JoeriV that said, supersonic flight is truly not necessary. Its way less fuel efficient because of drag AND it creates a loud noise that jet aircraft can get away with because its suited
