Are rockets going to replace airplanes for long haul flights on space x bfr Are rockets going to disrupt the airplane manufacturers?
Will aircraft manufacturers cancel airline orders will airlines go out of business in 2020s due to rocket travel point to point on earth let's say san Francisco to tokyo LA to Shanghai
We just don't know. I'm surprised that commercial aircraft manufacturers are not building hybrid powered planes. Turbo jets to 200 mph then ramjets taking over and achieving Mach 3 (2,300 mph with ease.
NO, ROCKETS are too expensive to make.
Why should it disrupt the manufacturers? Rockets are just airplanes without wings. If rockets become the preferred method of carrying passengers, aircraft manufacturers will just switch over to building rockets.
Rocket technology was an invention of Last Century, Vostok 1 was the first successful manned spaceflight program in April 12, 1961… Heu… Landing in Parachute?
Last century Japan invention was the Shinkansen… That was those days… Japan's population continues to gray and shrink in this century…

- Do you prefer night flights or day flights? I prefer night flights. The view of all the city lights and cars passing by below is so relaxing and I love the way airports are all lit up at night.
- What is the future of airplanes in the airline industry? Lets say 10 or 15 yeaes from now will commercial passenger airplanes look different than todays airliners for example supersonic or electric hypersonic Because people say nothing has changed much in the airline industry people say todays airplanes look the same from 1990s
- Has it ever happened where an arriving plane had to take off immediately because there was no parking space at airport? Is it mandatory that all arriving planes have a parking space available? What IF it were to happen? What would be the solution?
- Diverted Flights Flights from Birmingham & East Midlands? To Edinbro and Newcastle. Barmy when LEEDS/BRADFORD AIRPORT is open with NO SNOW! Passengers having to travel by bus back to the midlands when other airports in the north of England can take them
