This is G--BOAF (216 ) the last Concorde made, in 1978, and last Concorde to fly, anywhere. from London Heathrow,to it's Birth Place, at Filton Bristol, where it resides in a New Museum.
Bon anniversaire concorde.. il y a 50 ans tu nous embarquais. a Mach 2. pour les tours du monde de nos rêves a la conquête de l air et de l espace nous pensons particulièrement à toi nous t aimons pour toujours.. 8 juillet 2021
Ironically, Juring the long creative process, and costs were soaring, a Satirical British Magazine ''PRIVATE EYE'' had a Cartoon of Concorde, mimicing a large bird of prey, sat upright in a tree , making a nest out of Pound Notes, with it's ''beak ''full of 'em.
That angle of approach generated the maximum vortices above the wing which were used to maximise lift at low speeds, it was the discovery of these vortices and their use which allowed the ‘slender delta’ of Concorde to fly at high speeds and land at lower speeds, before this discovery by Weber and Kuchemann at the Royal Aircraft Establishment in the UK the delta was a massive wing design, as exemplified by the Avro Vulcan, which would have had too much drag to go supersonic.
Former chief Pilot of Concorde John Hutchinson, absolute joy to listen to. Nobody was more enthusiastic than he, and claimed that B A should never have grounded their Concordes.
Post War, the race was on, everybody wanted to win that race, which excellerated scientific progress BUT, politics ,envy, and the mad Green bunch , scuppered progress.
Hello oui... mon père était 1 des premiers pilotes. concorde Air France et bien sur c était 1 excellent pilote..... . il a volé avec Turcat .. et les autres pilotes d essai. . Bye bye
That's a little unfair. I loved and still love Concorde but we have a lot more information today than we did back then. Concorde today would have those RR Trent engines running on Hydrogen or some environmentally friendly fuel. It was a massive marketing success for BA and AF and for both countries too.. I think they would use it today to demonstrate that flying can be environmentally undamaging, which it will be; it would lead the way now like it did then.
@@anthonymorris5084 Not true sir. There are examples already flying and on UA-cam. Also RR are working on the development of new turbine type engines that will burn hydrogen not kerosene or liquifued natural gas. Airbus is committed to a new hydrogen powered commercial aircraft and prototypes, will be flying in around 2025. Airbus delivers. If not hydrogen then other forms of environmentally friendly fuels but with white hydrogen any other fuel or propulsion system will find it very hard to compete. Assuming we get there before we're all toast .. Enjoy 2024. It's going to be a belter..
@@TheLRider I find it difficult to believe that any plane in the world is commercially flying with hydrogen fuel. There aren't even cars that are being commercially manufactured that run on hydrogen. Hydrogen today is not a practical source of energy. It is incredibly volatile. The process is expensive. It leaks through all surfaces and containers. It requires greater energy in, than you get out. Fossil fuels are used to create hydrogen.
It was the BEST plane to fly on!!
Great video of Concorde.

4:01 Wow🌹🌹❤
Christain Marks exactly. Beautiful sight to behold of the Concorde flying over the NYC skyline and WTC standing proud.
@@MrATX-gl7nd absolutely stunning and beautiful
EL AVE FENIX......... CONCORDE........ UNA MARAVILLA..........
@4.30 - Concorde wipes it's feet on lesser planes:-)

el avion perfecto
I miss them
world trade center and concorde both are gone now ....
💙B E A U T I F U L💙
La cabina y los espacios entre pasajeros muy estrechos. Un gran avion
Come back the concorde
Just 6 years later and the scenery totally changes.
Yeah and IRA funding dried up. Coincidence.
4:42 that touchdown angle is just insane!
When landing it always looks like a bird of prey to me, as if it is going to snatch up an unwary 737 and take it back to its nest for its hatchlings.

Wow, this video has only just made me realise how tail happy the landings were on Concorde.

AC,AF and AG all starred here
Maravilloso
OJALA EN UN FUTURO NO MUY LEJANO REGRESARA EL CONCORDE ( CDMX )
Máquina Analógica mais perfeita construida pelo Homem.
Labonte the French frog 🐸 was captain and shift commander. What a life he lived. The dream.
Now Landing on runway 13L
Imagine if planes had souls.
She had
@@uptowngirluptowngirl Concorde had more soul than a sock with a hole.
Any pilots out there? What was it like to fly this amazing plane? I would love to know.
N
there are several interviews with Pilots, Google it

😪😭😭😭
Let’s get one of these baby’s back in the sky!
There Will Be More Concords in future But First one was way Ahead of its time. 😉
Post War, the race was on, everybody wanted to win that race, which excellerated scientific progress BUT, politics ,envy, and the mad Green bunch , scuppered progress.
World Trade gone, Concord gone. All a distant memory. SAD 😔
SST
Yes, an amazing aircraft for its time but I suspect it took a lot of skill to fly it. The pilots were probably the best in the world.

There was NO DOUBT, only the best would do.

@@TheLRider Not a single plane today uses hydrogen as fuel.
