Welll, Happy New Year DVA pilots! If you're just sittin' on the magenta line with nothing to do for a bit, you can check out this historic, 1965 28 minute youtube vid of the Boeing 2707 SST. https://youtu.be/u9BjJaDlOaQ There are some great shots of prop-liners and some SMOKIN' jets!
If you don't have time, here's a 5 minute vid (no narration) https://youtu.be/jIrDpjPm1Uc
Hard to believe, but Delta actually reserved three delivery positions for this thing. Fortunately or not, the funding died in Congress and the project was scrapped. Delta was heavily involved in the L-1011 and was working on the Northeast merger, so it probably was for the best.
