SERLESG (UPI Aviation Editor) WASinXGTON. The race for the supersonic airliner is on with at least one expert wishing the starting gun had not been fired. Britain and France have announced plans for joint development of an airliner capable of flying 1.500 miles per hour the so-called Mach 2 transport. By January, the United States have announced its own supersonic transport (SST) plans. It probably will involve a Mach 3 airliner which can fly 2.000 miles an hour, or three times the peed of sound.

Russia also has its foot in the upersonic door, with reported plans to convert a supersonic bomber into her first subsonic jet, the TU104. Now comes a highly-respected Swedish expert who doubts the wisdom of a supersonic transport race at this time. His name is Bo Lundberg. He is director of Sweden's Aeronautical Research Institute and regarded as an authority on commercial aviation. He frankly regards an SST project as unnecessary, potentially dangerous and ill-advised.

Lundberg argues that: The airlines still are hurting financially from their immense investments in current subsonic jets which are flying with empty seats. A supersonic airliner will cost a carrier at least $10 million and able to finance purchases. privately side with the Swedish dissenter also point out that the The Swedish expert calls for Unitcd staes cmnot afford fe 10-vear moratorium on all SST plans.

The tremendous in speed from pistons to jets failed to produce any substantial increase in air traffic, and there ig little reason to believe the SST will attract the new business necessary to keep it from becoming a flying white elephant.

The technical problems associated with supersonic air travel may be greater than the optimistic think. There are not only obstacles involving metallurgy, engines, noise and sonic booms, but the little-known dangers of cosmic radiation at the altitudes of supersonic flight. He suggests concentrating on commercial transports, from pis-such items as reduction of en-ltons to jets. The SST boils down to a matter of national prestige as well as economics and the die rightly or wrongly seems to be cast. 1 gine noise, development of new airliners for the short haul markets, all-weather operations and better airports.
