You really have to admire Trevor’s commitment to this series… going out and actually researching facts about the aircraft he’s showcasing for the episode. It’s commendable.

[@jconn1984]

Legit... he could just fly it and land it cool. But with the facts and knowledge that he explains.. literally makes this video a lesson. Honestly I was not aware of the facts and information that he explains... Exactly why I subscribed and keep watching.

I remember flying the Concorde to England in the 1990s. First taking off I felt immense pressure but 15 minutes through the skies I felt better afterwards. This is a cool video.

[@Hug_life]

I was lucky enough to fly on the concord when I was a kid! Super lucky that my dad was a big aviation buff so every year growing up he took us to the Oshkosh Air Show in Wisconsin which at the time was one of the biggest in the world. Loved it so much! The concord made an appearance a few years if I remember right, but one year my Dad wanted to splurge so for $500 a person we got to take a 45 min ride (ok full transparency, I was young so I don’t remember exactly but it was either 30 45 or 60min round trip ride). We took off from the air show and did a circle up into Canada and break the sound barrier over the Great Lakes! You don’t notice anything while onboard other than the tvs in the cabin display the airspeed and the captain came over the speaker informing us that we were faster the the speed of sound. Pretty awesome!

[@SpotTiger]

Actually, Concorde is the safest planes in the world. 31 years of service and only one fatal crash, literally not caused by the plane itself. What got it decommissioned was noise complaints and the amount of fuel it burnt at subsonic speeds. At supersonic speeds it was extremely efficient. It was just too expensive to taxi and fly over terrain after noise restrictions were put in effect.

At 20:58, they are working on a Supersonic Overture currently at the moment. It can reach up to Mach 1.7, a little under the speed of the Concorde. They hope to conduct their first flight by 2026, and go into service in 2029.

[@nathanielcruz6675]

This is definitely one of the most iconic aircraft of the 20th century. It's delta wing took over 6 months of wind tunnel testing to perfect. An ingenious triangular shape that allows Concorde to fly beyond Mach 2, but also slow enough to fly into existing airports. Afterburning turbojets were sourced from a Cold War Era bomber, but there were re-engineered with an innovative intake system that allows for cruise at supersonic speed for longer than any other aircraft in history. With a streamlined airframe, Concorde's sleek nose obscured the pilot's view. The solution was a nose cone that lowered to provide better visibility during taxiing, takeoff, and landing. Even though Concorde was an economical failure, it was a engineering success. Such a beautiful plane.

First commercial flight for Concorde was on January 21, 1976. Having said that: F-WTSA (102) first flew on *10 January 1973* from Toulouse. It was the fourth aircraft and the first to have the features and the shape of the future production aircraft. It was the first to fly to the United States (on 20 September 1973 to Dallas, Texas).

[@nathannecessary333]

Supersonic flight has been in the works again the past couple of years. Look up Boom Supersonic. Supposed to be able to go most places in the world in under 4 hours for 100 dollars a ticket.

From what I know, Concorde was only just breaking even until it became 'full concorde class' at those premium prices it was making money. it was only after that crash and they all got grounded; it was costing the companies a few million a week to keep them grounded, after a few weeks/months they were just taken out of service due to the high cost of keeping them around.

[@encryptedaviation1452]

Like way faster but a rifle bullet only looks really fast because the distance it has to travel is relatively short compared to the intercontinental Concorde, imagine you put yourself in at ground level travelling at the speed of a bullet but it dosent stop, if you go into ground view in the Concorde at bullet speed you can see that a bullet really isn’t that fast, it’s also small so all you see is a flash or a tracer. Imagine that tracer was still travelling. It would be very fast. But the Concorde is even faster.
