Imagine hitting up Liberty of London and Barneys New York in the same day—
fish and chips for lunch and Lombardi's pizza for dinner sounds like the best diet fail ever. Pipe dream? Not really: British firm HyperMach revealed plans in Paris last
week for the SonicStar aircraft, a crazy-fast jet that would reduce flying time from
London to New York to a mere two hours. And for all you ecological activists, the 20-seat plane isn’t even that bad for the environment thanks to an engine which reduces fuel consumption. Unfortunately,
our dreams of trans-Atlantic shopping in one afternoon will have to wait until the plane’s completion in 2025. What with inflation and that lame pound to dollar ratio, we'll start saving now. (Daily Mail UK)
