[@stevenmacdonald9619]

Got to love that unique callsign, used by British Airways since 1932. Taken from the emblem logo of Imperial Airways, and then BOAC, before the company was eventually known as British Airways. Although the Speedbird logo itself, was replaced by the Union Flag in 1984, it still appeared on the BAC Aerospatiale Concorde registered G-BOAD, underneath the cockpit window. G-BOAD holds the record for a Transatlantic passenger airliner crossing to this day, set on Feb 7th 1996, at 2hrs 52mins and 59 secs. G-BOAD was also the last Concorde to ever make that crossing in 2003. Today, she sits on Pier 86, at the Intrepid Museum, Manhattan, New York. The real Speedbird herself.

[@clqudy4750]

Yes, but what about Darth Plagueis the Wise?

[@mziv112]

@@clqudy4750 "Did you ever hear the tragedy of Darth Plagueis The Wise? I thought not. It’s not a story the Jedi would tell you. It’s a Sith legend. Darth Plagueis was a Dark Lord of the Sith, so powerful and so wise he could use the Force to influence the midichlorians to create life… He had such a knowledge of the dark side that he could even keep the ones he cared about from dying. The dark side of the Force is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural. He became so powerful… the only thing he was afraid of was losing his power, which eventually, of course, he did. Unfortunately, he taught his apprentice everything he knew, then his apprentice killed him in his sleep. Ironic. He could save others from death, but not himself." cheers m8

[@stevenmacdonald9619]

@clqudy4750 Darth Plague is a fictional Sith Lord from the Star Wars Saga. Concorde was a very real supersonic aircraft that accounts as the very first time that humanity has regressed in technology, rather than evolved. That A380 took over 8hrs in 2024, to do something that took less than 3 in 1996, and very close to that for 20 years previously. I find that shocking, to think two generations have had that speed of travel stolen from them.

[@jpckuijer]

​@@stevenmacdonald9619don't worry, at some point a billionaire will be able to buy a business jet that can reach the same speed as a Concorde.

[@stevenmacdonald9619]

@@jpckuijer Funny that. It was selfishness and corruption on a national scale that destroyed supersonic flight in the first place. Your answer is exactly that of those selfish billionaires, who couldn't stand the whole world to evolve. That's why the same kind of people are coming for your cars today. The people forcing equality onto you, have no intentions of actually living in that same world. ps A private jet, is not a passenger airliner. It flies under different licence.

That is a weird ass route. I assume for more ATC.

[@scrow9]

Question - at around 12:17 ATC gives the instruction to turn right to a heading of 360 - isn't that just going into a circle and ending up on the heading where you started? I am confused!

[@h4lo]

The headings are all with regards to compass directions, so turning right to a heading of 360 just means to turn right until you're facing due north. Presumably they say 360 instead of 000 so it's less ambiguous

[@thynix_]

He was instructed to turn right and fly a heading of 360 degrees, not turning by 360 degrees. He was on 275, so he is changing his heading by 85 degrees :)

I don't have Xbox, but the Microsoft flight simulator is fascinating to me. My main games are racing, but maybe one day I'll try the flying. Two things: I love the ATC at London, reminding pilots to please observe the hold instructions. They were well told. Secondly, for added realism why is there no co-pilot and where are the passengers and crew or is it difficult for the developer to add them? Anyway, it's still great to watch, technology really is something.

Hey AFP, I had a thought while watching this video. I've always wondered about the time jumps between flight level increases, decreases, and other events. Would it be easily possible to have some kind of a clock on-screen that better illustrates the time gap between events? I'm assuming in this video for example that the increase from FL60 to FL90 to FL150 to FL290 each have a good couple of minutes in between, but I don't have a frame of reference for it. Might just be me, dunno if more artifacts on the screen would be desirable, but wanted to ask.
