Boom Supersonic首席执行官布莱克·肖尔最近宣称，“能源和超音速飞行迎来复兴的时刻到了”，当时这家超音速客机公司揭幕了一座位于科罗拉多州的工厂，专门生产用于AI数据中心的燃气轮机。但早期支持者对这两项业务的交付时间表提出质疑或完全撤资，Boom可能正面临动荡。
Boom Supersonic CEO Blake Scholl recently declared “it’s time for a renaissance in energy and in supersonic flight” as the supersonic airliner company unveiled a Colorado factory dedicated to making gas turbines for AI data centers. But Boom may be facing turbulence after early backers for both ventures have questioned the company’s delivery timeline or backed out entirely.
该公司首批客户之一、联合航空首席执行官斯科特·柯比对Boom原计划于2029年交付首架Overture超音速客机表示怀疑。柯比最新的坦率评价是在接受《Office Hours: Business Edition》播客采访时作出的。“‘29年是他们的官方时间表，”柯比告诉播客主持人莫妮卡·兰利。“‘29年不可能实现——将需要更长时间。”
One of the company’s first customers, United Airlines CEO Scott Kirby, has expressed doubts about Boom’s original plan to deliver the first Overture supersonic airliner in 2029. Kirby’s latest frank assessment came during an interview with the Office Hours: Business Edition podcast th“‘29 is their official timeline,” Kirby told podcast host Monica Langley. “It’s not going to happen in ‘29—it’s going to take longer.”
