Boom Supersonic is taking the next step to bring its Overture airliner to market with the selection of Piedmont Triad International Airport in Greensboro, North Carolina as the site for its manufacturing plant. Plans call for breaking ground on the plant this year, beginning production on the Mach 2.2 Overture in 2024, and employing some 2,400 workers there by 2032.
