How big Super Sonic Business Jet is needed?
Dassault made an estimate late last year:

Current technology suggests such an aircraft would have a mtow of well over 100,000 pounds and a carbon footprint around four to five times that of a subsonic aircraft comparable in weight and size Falcon 7X cabin, IIRC is: somewhat narrower than Bombardier Challenger/CRJ, and Concorde somewhat wider than Gulfstream II...V, and wider than ERJ/Legacy. The 7X cabin is far shorter than Concorde, and shorter than Gulfstream V or Bombardier Global. How exactly does Falcon 7X cabin length compare against Embraer Legacy? |

Cabin dimensions for height, width, length: Falcon 7X: 6.2' 7.7' 39.1' EMB Legacy 600: 6.0' 6.9' 49.8' |
Aerion SSBJ cabin (6,5´ wide) is smaller than Dassault 7X cabin (7,7´ wide).
Does it mean Dassault is saying Aerion is too small? |
