This is a pretty cool development for aviation. The story spends more words going on about all the drawbacks of current designs though. There is a link off the story about how the new design will work. I think these new SAX-40s could be awesome if they deliver on the article’s promise and are built. My brother lives near O’Hare (I think all houses in Mt. Prospect are) and like other people who live near a flight path, the noise makes life unpleasant, lowers property values, there’s a chance of getting hit with “blue ice” and safety is my biggest worry; I’ve seen too many disaster-action movies. The SAX-40 has a cool, sci-fi look. It has some resemblance to an Earth Alliance shuttle and Thunderbird 2 with its small head and wider wings.
