For supersonic aircraft, flying subsonic over land, find the best route between airports. Allow for coastal buffer and potentially closed regions. Use a minimal model of aircraft performance: the focus is on time saved versus subsonic flight, rather than on vertical flight profile. For modelling and forecasting, not for planning your flight!
