How many naieve articles have I read over the last umpteen years about successors to the mighty Concorde?!
However the reality is that there will be successors ONLY if they are more efficient than 747's & A 380's etc (not likely with today's technology.)
Why MORE efficient?? - because of the humongous development costs. Yes, I know wars cost a lot- but no tax payer would allow their government to spend that sort of money developing an aeroplane. And no aeroplane company would spend the money unless guaranteed success.
Just like I don't think man will walk on the moon again. Too expensive!
Sadly, the Concorde is permanently dead.
