Spaceplane Suborbital Flight

Suborbital Flight is the world's finest commercial passenger space planes. Suborbital Flight is an answer to takeoff one journey into space which begins with a 45-minute cruise to an altitude of 12 km. At this distance the rocket propulsion system takes over from the jet engines. The space plane is boosted to almost vertical attitude with the breath-taking velocity of Mach 3 (three times the speed of sound). After 80 seconds and at an altitude of 60 km, passengers are literally sent into orbit. The rocket propulsion system is then shut down and the space plane's inertia allows it to ascend to over 100 km. Return to Earth As the jet engines take over again, passenger will enjoy a 30-minute descent to Earth and land back at the spaceport.
