um supersonic air travel oh i think i know what you're going to say because i
saw an advertisement
for it at newark airport hey billy goat of comedy oh thank you um been catching
up on the podcast
since i discovered it a couple years ago but this is my first time writing in i
heard the recent
episode on 9 13 21 where you briefly talked about supersonic flight you
mentioned that it was
discontinued after the crash and hasn't been used again at a commercial level
uh i thought he goes
since you are a fan of aviation i thought you might be interested to know that
it's actually
coming back soon i don't know if you consider this soon united airlines i saw
this ad i actually took
a picture of it and sent it to vinnie brand who's eventually going to be on
this podcast
vinnie brand the club owner of uh the stress factory um we shared a common
dream to fly the conquered to
france or to london or whatever and i took a picture of that and sent it to him
when i saw it
united airlines is going to be reintroducing supersonic flight in 2029 so that's
eight years away
i will be 61 years old holy shit
wow man 53 to 61 that's a quick oh that's a quick ride
um who gives a shit i'm fucking enjoying myself i i don't care about uh age
anymore as far as like
that's a great thing about becoming if you if you get older and you just
embrace being older
and just sort of let yourself become an old man i'm not saying like you don't
give up
um and you understand that you have no control of aging even though you always
know that when you
truly give into that that you can't stop time you know so but no one can stop
you from enjoying it
so as long as you're enjoying it you know there's kind of like
i don't know like i picture laying on my deathbed as being peaceful
and smiling and thinking about all the fun that i had that's what i'm hoping
um that is the goal uh anyway huge fan of everything you do thank you so much
for all of it and congrats
on your self-development you're an inspiration to other knuckleheads i am a knucklehead
i am a recovering meathead that's exactly what i am uh like myself who wants to
live their best life
basic white girl voice i really want all you other meatheads out there to live
your best life
you know when white girls say living their best life it means they're 100
focusing on themselves
so they can live the best life possible regardless of who has to suffer
anyway he says but seriously you and the podcast have been there for me through
some rough times i
appreciate you thanks again and go fuck yourself you know that really means a
lot to me that uh
there's other people that are fucked up out there and that you get something
out of this
um i i figure it's just the fact that you hear me trying um all right let's
read about supersonic
flight here oh my god united adding supersonic speeds with new agreement to buy
aircraft from boom
supersonic well what do they want for a supersonic jet maybe me and all the
podcast listeners we can
all go in we can all go in and buy a supersonic jet imagine the scheduling it's
booked for the next
fucking 18 months chicago and denver june 3rd 2029 2021 sorry united is tonight
oh that's where it
announced i guess that's their hubs oh would you look at that fucking it looks
like a dart
oh my god is that a sexy fucking plane
united will purchase 15 of boom's overture airlines what a great name once
overture meets united's
demanding safety operating and sustainability requirements with an option for
an additional 35
aircrafts the companies will work together on meeting those requirements before
delivery once
operational overture is expected to be the first large commercial aircraft to
be net zero carbon
from day one uh can you buy stock in this company optimized to run on a hundred
percent
sustainable aviation fuel saf it is slated to roll out in 2025 fly in 2026 and
expected to carry
passengers by 2029 united and boom will also work together to accelerate
production of greater supplies
of saf sustainable aviation fuel
isn't that exciting where where would this fly
you know it's funny this is i'm gonna keep doing stand-up until you can fly supersonic
anyway
anywhere just go to fucking des moines iowa
right supersonic is like north of what speed what is what is that's breaking
the speed of sound which we
all know is 700 what how many miles speed of sound supersonic
uh the speed of sound is 768 miles an hour so just remember 678 except you flip
seven and six seven six eight
768 miles an hour which means you could get you know once you get up to that
speed you could fly across the country i would think in about three hours as
the crow flies right the mock number is the ratio of the speed of the aircraft
to the speed of sound
the speed of the speed of the speed of the speed of the speed of the speed of
sound
and the undisturbed medium through which the body is traveling
all right by definition mock is number is a ratio of the speed of a body
parentheses aircraft to the speed of sound
and the undisturbed medium through which the body is traveling
undisturbed medium through what's the body how is it undisturbed
you know there's the friction of the air it's flying through all right
is it it is said that the aircraft is flying mach one if the speed is equal to
the speed of sound
okay so then is mach two twice the speed of sound
well now they're saying speed of sound is 717 miles an hour all right why do i
try to be smart
