Holy freaking cow.

Imagine going from London to Sydney in two hours?  That\'s freaking fast.

I wonder how long it will take for this tecnologoy to actually be implemented.  I bet like 20 years.

Who\'d they steal it from? We all know the Aussie\'s couldn\'t invent something themselves.

(Joking)

Seriously though, that is sweet. Can you imagine how short it would make two hour flights? So on and so on. I can\'t wait until this technology is implemented fully. Or better yet, I should say, I can\'t wait, if this technology is ever fully implemented.

Imagine if you went the opposite way from Sydney to London in 2 hours!

You would arrive in London around 8 hours before you left Sydney due to the time difference!

yeah those engines are really cool, ive  seen types like that before,  the coolest idea ive seen is ram jets at the tips of rotorblades, its a really cool idea but they dont work well unless they get enough air "rammed" into them

Excuse me!

But then I can\'t wait until this sorta thing is implemented. I mean, can you imagine Sydney/Brisbane/Melbourne to LAX in an hour!!! That is so freaking cool.

I wonder how they can slow it down though...
