After Concorde

Operate a supersonic aircraft on commercial routes where anyone with sufficient money can buy a ticket.

Supersonic aircraft: flies between Mach 1-5 and does not leave Earth's atmosphere

Please add airline names properly

Resolves to first three correct answers.

Will extend until resolution

If it becomes clear that this will never happen, a trusted neutral party should be appointed to judge when an NA resolution is necessary, since I intend to get on this market

Specific SpaceX judgement:

if SpaceX start operating as an airline I'll just edit the answer to XAir or whatever dumb name it is, but it will only count if they are operating a supersonic jet rather than a Starship point2point vehicle

  • Update 2024-11-12 (PST): - If an airline that is not listed as an option operates a supersonic airliner next, then fewer than three answers will resolve as True (AI summary of creator comment)

@JoshuaWilkes If an airline not on this list (say, Etihad) is next to operate a supersonic airliner, then I assume fewer than three answers resolve to True.

@Scipio11 Yes, although more likely someone would add the airline in question to the market before then

The total across all options should be 300%, but it’s currently 479%. So you can bet NO on everything for some free money

I’d do it myself by I’m all out of Mana :/

I added SpaceX airlines as a placeholder for a subunit of that company which may become an airline, although it may use another name. Is that okay? Or it might be named [future elon/spacex related airline]

@Ernie See here for extended discussion about how I'm handling this:

TLDR: probably want to exit much of that position

@JoshuaWilkes I'm happy to cover any mana loss from this, I should have updated the two markets simultaneously

@JoshuaWilkes ah got it, thanks.
