But flying at supersonic speed does have its place in the upper rankings of this ordinary person's life experiences.
Not really. I flew several times, and was never too impressed. The whole experience is fun the first time, but after that it is just a faster method of getting from A to B. I preferred BA F over Concorde any time.
I can hardly say it is in the upper rankings of my life experiences, it was warm, smelly and cramped. I live a busy life, but not busy enough to need to gain 3 hours on a trip to JFK.
