Description Fireflash is a hyper-sonic airliner capable of travelling at six times the speed of sound carrying at least 600 people.

Beyond all expectations, this crazy design actually works. Granted not very fast or far, but it lifts off just before the runway threshold, and can gain altitude.

Edit: Tweaked the canards and tail plane. Also added extra horizontal stabilizers and a few more struts (this thing bends a lot).
