New plane could fly London to New York in 80 minutes at 'three times speed of sound'

A new plane design could mean that flights between London and New York take just 80 minutes in coming decades.

The 328ft-long Hyper Sting supersonic plane could hold up between 130-170 passengers and in theory it could reach a maximum speed of 2,664 mph.

For context, Concorde reached speeds of up to 1,354 mph.
