Introduction
Our quest for high speed travel, the kind that will one day have us zipping across continents in just a few hours, began almost immediately after the first powered flight, a little over a century ago. It started with better engines, accompanied by sleek and strong airframes, as designs eventually evolved to achieve a breakthrough in faster-than-sound or supersonic flight just over four decades later.
