Heeeey this is really cool! I like this!

I'll try (once I finish a commission tonight) making both an aircraft exterior view and an interior of a maglev cabin.

And here I was working on how to design a hombuilt aircraft that would carry a taurform, and biped.

I don't know the stand up layout looks like it would work for short hops

Sand up has been considdered for human aircraft. The idea is you crowd into one small area for take off and landing, but then use the rest of the aircraft as a 'promenade' (or overnight hotel) during cruise.

I know they tried that early on but I don't think it would work well, the idea is great but it has it's hazzards. Try standing up in a moving bus... when they brake hard...

Any information? I was under the impression that it was an relatively new and untested idea.

And I stand on the underground all the time (~~Maybe it's because I'm a Londoner~~) and I don't have any problems. Modern passenger jets don't accelerate harder than trains or buses do, in either direction.

you forget about Pitch Yaw and Roll that you have in an aircraft. And many things can cause changes in them quickly. I remember seeing drawings of a plane set up like a subway car from back in the late 30s. It was designed for short hops like 20 to 30 mins.

You may be standing on the underground and everything is fine... But what happens when the train does an E-stop and pulls .3 to .6 Gs sideways with the train slowing down... or hits something that doesn't give? Now we are talking 2 to4 Gs real quick.

You're getting into Troll/Spam territory here.

Strawman arguement. Commercial aircraft don't do this because it would throw everything about inside the passenger area, including private property, messy food, and hot drinks. It would also damage the structure of the $300M aircraft. Pilots are trained to bank low and slow and put all additional force through the floor; so it's just like standing in an elevator.

Stupid idiot arguement: Commercial aircraft can't pull e-stops, and there's nothing they can hit at 50,000+ that won't be an insta-kill anyway.

Finally I didn't draw any seats at all in the above pictures. I assumed most would realise that the left group have mats and headrests, the right group would not simply be floating mid air, and the middle group would be in literal stalls up to their waist height. Modern SRO do not look anything like subway trains. Something you could have googled out before making up idiot reasons why they wouldn't work.

You forgot to add the 'really' high density mode, the 'orgy' one!
Or add anti-grav and had another set 'hanging' from above.
