Passenger planes are not known for their speed. In comparison to fighter jets, their basically snails. But that doesn’t mean they should be ignored entirely. While most of their speeds usually ranged between 500 and 700 miles per hour, some unique airliners could go supersonic. At that speed, they could take their passengers from New York to London in roughly three hours. Are you ready? Fasten your seat-belts, here are Fastest Passenger Planes Throughout History.
We already know that big is best: the more too-big-to-fly the plane looks, the better it is. But there’s also an argument that speed matters. After all, if the length of your journey didn’t matter, !passenger planes can get pretty fast. So here are fastest passenger planes in history.
