[@TheStudentPilotsHandbook]

I think that after the Concorde was grounded, aircraft manufacturers pivoted their objectives toward making airplanes more fuel efficient rather than faster or higher.

Aviation is pivoting towards fuel efficiency, comfort, luxury, and safety. Speed nowadays is an unnecessary thing to boast (which is good). I'm good with how it is right now.

[@austinlawler3739]

The Concorde never really made money, and by all accounts, wasn't very well appointed. In the early 00's lots of airlines were introducing business class as we have known it the past 10-15 years. So that put the Concorde at a disadvantage, many prefer a quiet, comfortable environment over speed and noise. Not to mention it was too expensive to really work financially. The last nail in the coffin was really Airbus. They were the ones who had taken over for parts. They didn't want to do it anymore as it was too expensive.

[@Ovahlls]

@@TheStudentPilotsHandbook exactly. this is why we're seeing more mid-size or regional jets than big ol massive 4 engine double decker jumbo jets. like the a380, or 74, or even the a340, even tho that wasn't a double decker plane

I was on an internal flight in Egypt, is a little plane. Dunno the model, just that it was an Embraer, and there was a weird thing on the back of the seat in front of me. I didn't click that it was an ashtray until the light went out and everyone lit cigarettes. If I'd seen it anywhere else, I would instantly have recognised it.

3 hours 25 mins! That’s impressive.

[@hoedemakerbart]

It could do that faster if it could keep on the continuous after burner, it had to fly without over land area and wait until open sea

[@KingofInterns]

​@@hoedemakerbart incorrect. Concorde was able to supercruise at up to mach 2.2 without afterburners. Only needed afterburners to get up to speed. Speed limit wasnt due to engines either. It was the aluminium Concorde was made of. Any faster and it would melt.

[@barbaramarshall8095]

I was a Nurse at Kingston on Thames hospital which was under Heathrow flight path, working on the 2nd floor. Use to see Concorde fly over at least once a week depending on shifts. If I heard Concorde and was giving a bedbath I would hurriedly cover my patient, excuse myself & rush to the windows to see her fly over. Wonderful sight. Another time flew in from Africa and saw 3 Concordes lined up @ Heathrow, sadly never got to fly in her but happy memories.

[@yourfuneraldirector6432]

I flew Concorde with my mother on a trip to Paris in 97. I'll never forget the interior and how small I thought it was. I'll also never forget the exquisite food and beverage served on the flight with impeccable service. The next time I was reunited with one of them was on a trip to Seattle where she sat at the Boeing Air Museum. She could have kept flying, but I know all good things must end. There will be another!

As someone who was born in the early 80's and lived in the south east of England in the 90's and early 00's I always remember when it went overhead on its way to land at Heathrow, sometimes circling in a holding pattern. We would stop playing football in the street to look up and watch it. You knew it was coming because of the noise it made was unlike anything else and we'd see who could be the first to spot it. After it left we'd go back to playing football. Once I was with my dad on the m25 early one morning, a cold, Crisp, clear day and concorde came right over the top with it's after burners glowing. I'll never forget it, I can't believe we just took it for granted. Happy times

[@DrStrange1000]

Your story is exactly like mine! The era you are born in, the playing of football in the park, the noise of the concord overhead. Everything..my I was in SW London. 🙏🏼

[@MrSupercar55]

We did think it was the future of aviation, holding no regard for running costs, something which insidiously sealed Concorde’s fate in 2003.

Very rarely if at all was Concorde HELD in the holding pattern, it had priority and always landed BANG on TIME.

In 1986 I was aboard one of several monthly Air Jamaica Charters to Montego Bay (2 hours from New York). Only 900 dollars including first class return on 747 first class (upper level). I will never forget the swooping between clouds at high speed over Jamaica. Passengers were invited to visit the cockpit mid-flight. The air port was jammed with hundreds of people there to greet and see the plane. We debarked via stairs and I got a picture under the nose of the plane with the crowded observation deck to the side. That and watching the WTC towers fall with my own eyes might be the two most memorable moments of my life.

[@alfnat9133]

[@JR90.]

Being only just 13 when Concorde was retired from service, videos like this give an amazing insight to what she was like and what she was capable of! Its crazy to me that Concorde is now considered 'old technology', yet here we are in 2023, with nothing that comes even remotely close. Such a shame.

[@missvemasters4932]

Wow, love how the air hostess is so casual whilst this is all going on. So fast! Not sure I could of handled it even if I got the chance. Thank you for sharing 🚀

[@Diapason16ft]

Not ground fog on takeoff, but low pressure condensation from the wings producing lift.

[@icculus]

Was about to say the same!

[@Mysonchris1]

icculus yea me too

[@JKevinBrady801]

Ok thanks for the update - I didn’t know that

[@johnboltman2285]

The low pressure causes the temperature to drop (remember pressure is related to temperature), low temp causes moist air to condense.

[@plsniper]

As aircraft picks up speed, the wings start to produce lift due to low pressure crated above them. When the pressure drops, so does the temperature. If there is enough moisture in the air and the dew point (termperature at which the air becomes saturated) is close, fog/ mist is formed over the wings. You can also see that sometimes right in front of the engines, where low pressure is also created. Just a little more in depth on how it works. :) Beautiful video by the way. I had a chance to fly on the Concorde for $500 when I worked for Delta. I so regret not doing it.

[@Schmoose]

This made me nostalgic for an era I was never apart of. I'm 18, and my dad always told me stories from when he was a kid about this plane. He told me it used to fly right over the field in Queens, New York (when it departed from JFK) where he played baseball as a kid. He said it was so fast that it threw up tornadoes of dust and sand from the field, and that it deafened everyone as it flew overhead. I would have loved to fly on it.

[@ianpearce5745]

When I was 18 years old (1974/5) I lived in Maryland, USA for a year. Every day at 11am Concorde flew over the house on her flight from Washington Dulles to Heathrow. I saw (and heard) her fly over on many occasions. She was such a beautiful plane.

[@nazrasool6063]

[@wesleydeschepper9120]

As a kid I looked in awe at the futuristic aircraft portrayed in the TV Show "The Thunderbirds", ruling out the possibility those amazing machines could exist for real.... I'd say the Concorde got pretty damn close 😉 This video is an amazing tribute to one of the most fascinating chapters in aviation history. Sadly I can vividly remember the news images on the day a Concorde perished over France and it all came to a grinding halt. Luckily the legend still lives on in memories like this. Thank you

[@Stauffhendark]

I'd always been a plane lover, when I was kid here in México we use to run to the roof we were living to see the Concorde pass, that loud sound just made chills and still does, in my mind I flew milles and milles away with her..... Wishing some day can go on board...never happened but as adult I flew too much by my job, take off is the most exciting momment and gooosh I just get amazed with this video, the window view at take off, really fuckin' fast! Thanks for the video, and thanks Concorde for 27 supersonic years

[@JKevinBrady801]

IM very very lucky to have been able to fly Concorde - once got into the cockpit in-flight - the f2nd officer showed me the bulkhead by his instruments with a 3-4 inch gap - on the ground they were touching with no gap. The window also feels warm to the touch, unlike sub sonic, and it's from the friction.

[@Stauffhendark]

@@JKevinBrady801 wow! You are really lucky man! Those experiences are everlasting , thanks for share. Have a nice and wholesome week

[@JKevinBrady801]

And the plane actually stretches 3 feet in flight! With some guns if you could fire a bullet just as Concorde went by you would actually see it moving backwards out your window - It travels at 22 miles/minute and would cover 656 meters in one second (or about 2,000 feet)!

[@raybame5816]

I am very pleased to see this video. The aspects of the plane and flight are so different from general flying today and yesterday even. The low passenger load and cost per passenger limited it's availability to the common person so no one really gets the feeling of this trip without this vid. The high take-off and landing speeds are really noticeable and the angle at descent seen in the window frame shows why it needed the "droop snoop" cockpit. I've always liked this bird since I first saw it back in '69 when I worked at P&W when we were coming up with an SST, which never happened..only the British/French and USSR had them....Thanks again for the upload.
