Building a Quiet Supersonic Passenger Jet! (Flyout SkyCruise Pt. 2)



We build an executive supersonic private jet for our SkyCruise passengers

Reminder: Flyout is not available for purchase, and I can only access the game through a pre-release tester key. You will not be able to purchase flyout until it releases for early access.

  1. Engines tend to create sonic booms at the intake. For quiet supersonic, you want the engine nacelles on the top, so the boom is intercepted and deflected upwards by the structure or wings of the vehicle.

  2. Hey man, I think it would be really cool if you added chevrons to the supersonic aircraft design. For example the 737 max and 787 have chevrons on the back of the engines to distribute the air coming out the back. Maybe adding these to the backs of the engines, wings, and the tail might help reduce the noise? Never seen that on a concept supersonic plane, but im thinking that must help

  3. I find myself thinking the SkyCruise would make more sense on a much bigger planet. Saturn has about the right gravity & air pressure if I understand right, and SkyCruise being nuclear could work in its atmosphere. Of course, this implies the existence of vastly larger aircraft in the form of hovering cities! Perhaps cities could be extremely tall with buoyancy tanks in a thicker part of the atmosphere… I don't know! 😀

  4. An easy efficiency increase method is to fly high, very high. For example above 45000 feet high. The decrease of air pressure means that there is a lower pressure of oxygen entering the engine which would require less fuel to combust. This reduces thrust as well but there is also less drag so it kinda evens out until there isn’t enough air pressure to sustain a combustion anymore. Im no scientist nor do i actually have any form of understanding beyond this about this topic, I hope this helps.
