Boeing supersonic transports are shown in high - speed and low - speed flight in this sketch. The plane speeds toward a destination thousands of miles away, with its wings swept back and integrated with the horizontal tail into a single lifting surface for supersonic flight. The other SST descends for a landing with its wings forward and its huge flaps providing lift for low-speed flight. Boeing made public its new SST design today.
