Resumo
A Aviação Civil, desde o seu surgimento, moldou a forma como os seres humanos
se locomovem, fornecendo maior praticidade, agilidade e menor tempo entre a
origem e o destino de um passageiro. Desde a década de 50, houve enorme
interesse global na concepção de uma aeronave supersônica, que mudaria de vez
toda a dinâmica do transporte aéreo de passageiros.
O produto desse interesse veio através de um consórcio franco-britânico, que tornou
possível a criação de uma aeronave nas especificações previstas: O Concorde.
O Concorde foi um dos responsáveis pela popularização das aeronaves
supersônicas para o grande público. Aeronave esta, que operou por quase três
décadas realizando rotas ao redor do mundo. Após diversas barreiras físicas e
econômicas, além de fatores como queda do mercado aeronáutico e um acidente
fatal, o Concorde encerrou suas operações em 2003.
Após isso, nenhuma outra aeronave chegou próxima de preencher esta lacuna
deixada pelo Concorde.
Este trabalho demonstrará o futuro da aviação civil supersônica. Dissertará sobre os
principais projetos até hoje apresentados, o nível de progresso de cada um, e
abordará com maior destaque o projeto da empresa Boom Technology, que, na data
da realização desta pesquisa, possui o maior progresso e maior probabilidade de
entrar em operação até o fim da década.
E, por fim, citará as principais dificuldades que os projetos passados encontraram e
como as futuras aeronaves poderão contornar ou corrigir estes obstáculos.
Civil aviation, since its inception, has shaped the way humans travel, providing greater convenience, speed, and reduced time between the origin and destination of a passenger. Since the 1950s, there has been enormous global interest in the conception of a supersonic aircraft that would fundamentally change the dynamics of passenger air transportation. The result of this interest came through a Franco-British consortium, which made possible the creation of an aircraft according to the specified specifications: the Concorde. The Concorde played a significant role in popularizing supersonic aircraft for the general public. This aircraft operated for almost three decades, conducting routes around the world. After facing various physical and economic barriers, along with factors such as a downturn in the aviation market and a fatal accident, the Concorde ceased operations in 2003. Subsequently, no other aircraft came close to filling the gap left by the Concorde. This work will demonstrate the future of supersonic civil aviation. It will discuss the main projects presented to date, the progress level of each one, and will give greater emphasis to the project of the company Boom Technology, which, as of the date of this research, has made the most progress and has the highest probability of entering into operation by the end of the decade. Finally, it will mention the main difficulties that past projects encountered and how future aircraft could overcome or correct these obstacles.
