Airbus patents Mach 4.5 plane

[mikedreamer787]

From the original article -

Airbus has filed other unusual aircraft patents in the past.
For example, last summer, it filed a patent tobicycle-style seats on planes that would make it possible to cram more passengers in the same amount of space. And last fall, it patented an aircraft cabin shaped like a giant flying saucer.

Seats like those on treadlies? No doubt airbus will design 'em a la St Pauls Cathedral (no feckin ball room)...

And Airbus would be wise in following Boeing's tried 'n trusted 'That Looks About Right" rule...



Mr Anderson did!
