Horizon

Abstract

“We see an increased demand in all aspects of air traffic‐ short haul, medium haul and even to long‐range Mach 4 supersonic transports”, declared Mr. Grayden Paul, deputy director of airline requirements of Lockheed. He also said that current designs of wide‐bodied passenger aircraft would be used until 1985 when a new design would be needed. Lockheed forecasts show that world air traffic will reach about 850,000 million revenue passenger miles by the end of 1980 and by the year 2,000 it could be 3,500,000 million.
