GoKawiilUnited CEO doubts Boom Supersonic's 2029 Overture delivery date
Boom Supersonic is building a Colorado factory to make gas turbines for AI data centers even as its supersonic airliner program faces skepticism. United Airlines CEO Scott Kirby said in an October 28, 2026 podcast interview that Boom's stated 2029 target for delivering its first Overture jet 'is not going to happen,' predicting delays. United, American, and Japan Airlines have conditional, deposit-backed agreements to buy the Overture once it's commercially available.
