Boeing Sonic Cruiser Concept

4,572 PancakeAddiction  6.4 years ago

The Boeing Sonic Cruiser is a concept jet airliner with a delta wing-canard design. It is a concept airliner by Boeing that has been cancelled due to airlines opting for lower operational costs.

In theory, the Boeing Sonic Cruiser would be able to hit speeds up to Mach 0.98 ( 752mph ), but because operational costs were estimated to be high, Boeing withdrew the concept and stuck with designing an aircraft capable of Mach 0.85 with higher fuel efficiency. This would later be known as the Boeing 787.

The replica isn't very accurate, though I've tried my best to match those of many designers' concepts.

Controls:
AG 1 = Landing Lights
AG 2 = Pushback
AG 8 = Main Engines

  • Pushback requires you to disable the main engines ( AG 8 ) and activate the pushback system ( AG 2 ).

I hope you enjoy this creation!
