Flight Test Program Accelerating
Boom Supersonic announced its demonstrator aircraft XB-1 successfully completed its third test flight less than three weeks after the second flight. The flight was piloted by Chief Test Pilot Tristan “Geppetto” Brandenburg for his second flight at the controls. Boom is testing key systems and performance as it systematically expands the flight envelope. The pace of test flights is picking up on its way to the target of supersonic flight before the end of the year.
