Future Planes

People are currently working on some cool new ideas for airplanes.

We might see some of these amazing planes in the future.

This plane will be extremely fast.

It will go 5,310 kilometers per hour, which is five times faster than the speed of sound.

The plane will help people commute between New York City and London.

At present, this trip takes about 7 hours.

With the hyper-sonic plane, it could take just 90 minutes.

 

@ Flying-V Plane

 

This plane is shaped like a giant letter 'V'.

It doesn't have a body, so passengers will sit in the wings.

It will hold the same number of people as other planes.

However, It will be smaller and more efficient.

This way, it will use less fuel and help the environment.

 

@ Flying Train

 

Is this a train or an airplane?

Actually, it is both!

Passengers will board the plane at a train station, and it will transport them to the airport.

Then, wings will be attached to the train, and it will soar away!

This could make traveling much more convenient.
