The economic implications of SST have been studied by several groups. Consequently there exists a legacy of techniques for the estimation of SST operating costs. The Air Transport Association devised two systems of equations for predicting airline operating costs, one in 1960 and a proposed draft set in 1966. The latter method has not yet been given official publication because of the many suggestions for improvement that were offered by airline personnel and equipment manufacturers. The 1966 set of equations, based on turbojet and turbofan experience and accumulated in large part subsequent to 1960, are more appropriate for estimating the SST costs. Aircraft and aircraft engine manufacturers also have produced cost-estimating techniques.
