I should have been more specific.  I mean doing it on a large scale, big enough to provide ample fuel for jet aircraft.

 

That I can't answer. I guess Boom are convinced they can, sufficiently to fuel their endeavors.

Not for the smaller prototype. Not sure about the big guy.

Angle of attack would need to be high for landing, like Concorde. Wonder if they are using TV cameras to see the runway instead of nose droop. Would make sense in this day and age.
