| US President Donald Trump gestures as he disembarks from Air Force One
upon arrival at Morristown Municipal Airport in Morristown, New Jersey,
on June 6, 2025. President Donald Trump signed an Executive Order on Friday aimed at
advancing the development and implementation of supersonic aviation
technology in the United States.
Regarding the executive order, the White House informed Americans that…
“America once led the world in supersonic aviation, but decades of
stifling regulations grounded progress. This Order removes regulatory
barriers so that U.S. companies can dominate supersonic flight once
again.
The Order directs the Administrator of the Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA) to repeal the prohibition on overland supersonic
flight, establish an interim noise-based certification standard, and
repeal other regulations that hinder supersonic flight.
The Order instructs the FAA Administrator to establish a standard for
supersonic aircraft noise certification that considers community
acceptability, economic reasonableness, and technological feasibility.
The Order advances the coordination of supersonic research,
development, test and evaluation efforts through the National Science
and Technology Council with leadership from the Office of Science and
Technology Policy.
It promotes international engagement through the FAA and other
agencies to align global supersonic flight regulations and secure
bilateral agreements for international operations.”
The 47th president is initiating what the White House has
characterized as a “historic national effort” to restore the United
States’ position as the unequivocal global leader in high-speed
aviation.
“For more than fifty years, outdated and overly restrictive
regulations have grounded the promise of supersonic flight, stifling
American ingenuity and weakening our global competitiveness in aviation.
Advances in aerospace engineering, materials science, and noise
reduction now make supersonic flight not just possible, but safe,
sustainable, and commercially viable.
American companies developing supersonic aircraft have already
entered into government contracts and agreements with major commercial
airlines, such as United Airlines and American Airlines, who have
committed to purchase supersonic jets to enhance their fleets with
faster travel options.
By removing decades-old regulatory barriers and promoting
cutting-edge supersonic technology, President Trump is Making Aviation
Great Again,” the White House concluded.
