The death of Concorde story always saddened me. They flew 28 years straight without any single accident whatsoever, and then another plane's accidental debris (that wasn't cleaned from the runway because apparently no one knows that the debris was there) brought Concorde to its first and last accident, which was also fatal for everyone on board and four people in the hotel it came crushed into. 😢 I know that nobody and nothing is perfect in this world, but Concorde was basically flawless for almost 3 decades. And now nobody dared to try something so cool like that again... Flying with Concorde used to be many people's childhood dreams...

The Concorde had 80 safety deficiencies for today's passenger transport airworthines. It was a ticking bomb, bad redundance systems and an aerodinamic that only works at high speed. Take off and landing was a critical issue and forget about gliding with this thing, on engine fail it falls down like a stone.

The Concorde itself didn't suck. The aircraft performed as intended or better than designed, and the Air France crash was the only crash the airplane experienced. What sucked was the development costs and people not knowing what a supersonic airliner would do sound-wise. The plane burned a lot of fuel, but this was by design, as the engines of the time were less efficient than today's. Incidentally, the Tu-144 "Concordski" was based off stolen Concorde plans and was rushed into production with typical Russian quality issues. Still, NASA flew a modified Tu-144 as a test bed for supersonic research in the 1990s.

In fairness the Concorde flew for 28 years, halving the flight time between Europe and the U.S. east coast. In its 28 years of operation there was one fatal accident, occurring in 2000, that was actually caused by parts falling off the plane that took off before it. The planes were all pulled from service following the accident until an investigation could be completed. While they did return to service for a couple of years after the accident and investigation they never returned to profitability and were finally decommissioned in 2003. There were a great number of engineering discoveries made during the development process that are still relevant today. A very expensive megaproject for sure but certainly not useless.

Also the event of 9/11 that followed with the boeings caused Airlines around the world to drop drastically on Wall Street as moral to air travel took a hit and would take years to recover. Security had to be heavily invested in and losses had to be cut so since Concorde was costing more per flight and not able to attract the numbers as other flights struggled at the time it was the final nail in the coffin.

@@LunaryxDiarmait Yeah but that's you and you represent a tiny segment of society that will become obsolete as convenience becomes the norm, it's a generational mindset switch that is inevitable as more people are going to be born into guaranteed conveniences which majority will indeed take that for granted as that's what been established since their birth. A huge generational switch is eminent to take place as the advancements in all fields, be it Ai, be it fusion reactors, be it whatever, it is all to make the most out of the resources we have access to, but it also indirectly leads people to a more sedentary, lethargic lifestyle which is definitely where the future is headed. We already in the present day have conveniences that our predecessors deemed impossible & unlikely, yet here we are. i feel the goal of humanity that is inherently decided is to make technological advancements which either gives us access to data/knowledge inaccessible prior or technologies that make the present life of humanity to be more tolerable so that they have more time and mental resources to utilize their brainpower for advancements which might have been established as not fathomable at the time. I wonder, is this not how our ancestors thought about WIFI & other advancements etc. and I know you might have thought that too for a future technological advancement we haven't yet achieved, but at what point do we really know we have not maximized the potential of resources in earth itself? with further advancements would other planetary resources really be out of reach? is there really a limit when our universe is ever so expansive? we'd never know in our lifetime, but can you really discount the growth of humanity, even though it has progressed indefinitely?

4.2 billions for 200 planes is a bargain. An Airbus A318, which is a small range plane with a comparable capacity than the TU104, costs 77 millions a unit. 200 units would cost 15.4 billions. So 4.2 billions is a pretty good deal if such a comparison makes any sense.

24:55 something you didn't mention about the Concord is how tight a fit it was inside, the seats were small and the windows were tiny, if you were over about 5' 5" tall you had to like bend down to walk down the aisle, it was very claustrophobic. I got a tour of the inside of one but I really really wanted to go on a flight, and I missed out on a ticket giveaway by about 10 people. In the summer of 1998 I believe it was virgin but it could have been British Caledonia airlines was giving away two tickets per person to take the Concorde round trip from Los Angeles to London, you had to come dressed up as an alien from another planet, there were no rules for halibut the costumes had to be and they had 50 sets of two tickets. There were people that were going to a store and purchasing a pair of flippers and coming back and say that they're from a water planet and their entire costume was a pair of swim fins, but because initially they didn't have anybody that came in costume everybody that showed up in the first 50 people won a set of tickets. I found out about it I grabbed some stuff to make a quick costume and when I got there I was about the 60th person. I was very disappointed, they gave me one of the consolation prizes which was a hat, and it wasn't even a Concorde hat it was I want to say British Caledonian airways hat.

That strip of metal came from the left wing due to faulty maintenance procedures that was supposed to cut cost for Continental.

16:10 That appears toi be a standard procedure for China to "help" developing countries: 1: Provide a plan for a new port or roadway. 2: Offer generous financing for the project described in item 1. 3: The financing agreement has two major stipulations. 3a: The project must use Chinese companies for the labor and Chinese vendors for the supplies. 3b: The project itself and the land it sits on is the collateral for the financing. 4: This means that china is paying ITSELF to build the project, AND that the project AND the land becomes Chinese property if(when) the 'hosting country' defaults on the loan. It's a sneaky way to do 'mini-invasions,' and to set up Chinese-friendly ports all over the Third World.

Did some of the passengers that flew on Concorde work at the World Trade Towers? - "Yes, some of the World Trade Center's best customers who flew on the Concorde were killed in the 9/11 attacks. The loss of these customers contributed to British Airways' decision to abandon the Concorde. " Imagine getting on the Concorde, to go to work at the Twin towers then come back home in London UK.

Hello! Architecture student here. In one of my classes I had to look at a randomly assigned Serpentine Pavilion (a yearly architecture exhibit where the world's best architecture firms design a temporary pavilion to sit next to the Serpentine Gallery, London) and design a cafe based on it. I was, unfortunately, assigned a pavilion by none other than MVRDV, the same architects behind Marble Arch Mound. And you'll never guess what their pavilion was... It was a geometric artificial hill over the gallery, that, I kid you not, looked like a plastic mountain with a tunnel for a kids train set. It turns out that MVRDV has a thing for artificial hills. Their pavilion, luckily, never got built because it was too expensive. Also, luckily for me, all the tutors agreed that I could be reassigned because the pavilion (a) was never built, and (b) was ugly and they all hated it.

My husband, our kids, and I, went to the mall in New Jersey in April 2021. We were on vacation in New York City, and I really thought my kids would fall in love with NYC, like their dad and I, but they were not impressed lol It also didn't help that the stores closed around 7pm because of Covid restrictions. Anyways, I was trying to find something fun to do with them and came across the waterpark in the mall, so we went. The waterpark was sooooo boring and a hugeeee waste of money. The wave pool takes up the entire space, the lazy river was super tiny, they had like 4 slides, 2 of which were for toddlers, so my kids were too old to use and the other 2 were huge. My husband went down the biggest and ended up with a massive bruise on his back and butt. He has extremely tough skin and never bruises, so I know that ride was not pleasant. The worst part was we paid around $350 for just day passes!!! Now as for the rest of the mall, it was amazing and was actually very busy, even with Covid restrictions. The ice rink was a blast, and the amusement park is right next to the entrance of the waterpark. It looked like it would have been a lot of fun, much more than the waterpark. We didn't do the slopes, but we watched, and it was amazing. The slope was no black diamond, but it was a very decent size. They also had the practice bunny hill. We ended up liking the mall so much, we went back to explore the rest of it, the next day. I would be at the mall all the time, if it were near me, in Ohio.

22:41 Concorde was WAY ahead of its time. One single accident due to debris on the runway, which went into the fuel tank causing it to crash. The company did EVERYTHING the FAA asked it to do, including putting kevlar on the bottom of the wings, but being jealous - USA - of the plane, they STILL wouldn't clear it to fly ever again. Stopping it from every flying again was purely political, jealously and money driven... other carriers didnt like it because it took money away from their boring NINE HOUR flights, and made them look dull.. It was an AMAZING feat of British engineering, and hasn't been duplicated even today.

Another factor to Concorde's failure was the skyrocketing of fuel costs in 70-80's. Also concorde burned fuel during takeoffs and landings, which would cost alot, so they made Concorde fly at subsonic speeds and that was the final nail to the coffin. I still love the aircraft and its uniqueness, such a legendary plane.❤❤❤

My question about the Hyperloop is how they deal with inertial force. Shooting to 700+mph will put a lot of force on the body, even if done slowly.

The operators of Concorde had been looking for a reason to stop them flying. Very costly and increasing noise complaints and decreasing passenger numbers meant they wanted an excuse to stop the flights. They got one.

The main reason Concorde failed is high fuel cost and lack of demand for high speed travel. People don't generally need to reduce atlantic fight from 10 hours to 3 hours, but they would like to spend less money.

I don't think so either. Would need to restrict the height of other vehicles using the road of course. Oh, and because it runs on rails doesn't necessarily mean it's technically a train. Vehicles that run on rails on roads are called 'trams'.

Some problems with the TU-104 : NO air brakes, NO flaps, meaning insane take off and landing speed. Imagine landing a jet liner at the take off speed of a fully loaded fighter jet. Then, the cargo hold lacked proper anchoring for it's content, leading to uncontrolled load shift, often resulting in crashes. It was derived from a bomber.

Not fair the way you treated the Concorde: the sonic waves can naturally happen outside populated areas, they do not just take off and acheive mach speeds immediately. Its main failure came from USA's new flight regulations, created just to kill Concorde's viability... Sales could have kept the project alive and in the crease. It was a beautiful bird.

Also something in regards to the TEB, if it had worked and people were using it, then it should have reduced the traffic making it obsolete. Something that just getting busses and encouraging their use would already do at a fraction of their cost.

I remember the days before sonic booms were banned over land. I was may 8 or 9 and visiting my oldest sister at MSU for little sisters weekend. We were in an elevator at Fee Hall when a sonic boom hit the building… and the elevator stopped working. We were only stuck a few minutes before they got the elevator running, but it was just one of several reasons for the ban. If you were outside though they were cool.
