Is there still a place in GZG's Future History, for the Jumbo Jet? What
about other aeroplanes like turbo-props, small passenger jets, cargo
planes,
etc.? Would they have all disappeared? Or would they still be in use?
    Colony worlds have a low population, but I would expect populations
of
two or three million to be easily attainable after, say, 50-100 years of
colonisation. New Zealand has a population of 3.5 million, yet it has
it's
own fleet of jets and other aircraft (Air New Zealand). So do even
smaller
places like Fiji, Tonga and Cook Islands.
    So, after landing on planet from the orbital scramjet, is it likely
you
could need to take a conventional plane to get to other places on the
planet?
