@liza I like the fact that some sky scrapers have aurports on the roof. In the 1990ies I invested in Cargo Lifter. The idea was great but the company was fake. What they did build though was the giant hangar for Zeppelins near Berlin. Today it is re used as a homiday resort "Tropical Island".

But I love the idea of such very silent drones. The Concorde is history, so are hovercraft ferries over the channel to england. Slower is okay today.
@liza Thanks Liza for posting this. This is a read I was dearly waiting for. Im so interested in utopies. Brinsmade was surely influenced by Jules Verne. Unfortunately the newer utipies are rather influenced by Orwell and Huxley who in my opinion did not guess well about the future. They shaped it. And not towards a utopian but towards a dystopian vision.
