Nice try, but we all know American Airlines will still be flying those beat up MD-82s in 2050
LMAO - I was thinking the same thing! Long live the Mad Dogs!
It's all a dream. They can draw up whatever comes to their mind on the computer, but when it gets down to it, it comes down to one thing - money. Just look at the concorde - brilliant idea, but just not profitable. Which is why I think we as humans have peaked in aviation, not because of our abilities in technological advancements, but because our hands are tied to our bank accounts.
Take a look, not at the modernity, but the concept. Look familiar? It does to me, ala Milwaukee Road from Chicago to Seattle. Skytop dome cars with swivel parlour chairs giving you a panoramic view of the country going by. But today, all we have are cattle cars with less than hospitable seating. Progress?
I'm with all of you. This is not 2050 but maybe 2250 if the airlines ever get their act together and start treating the passengers as people again and not cattle.
Since Cdr. Scott has already traveled back through time to show us how to make transparent aluminum, this looks totally doable to me.
