    The afterburners on Concorde's when they took off at night makes current airliners look like pigeons.

    i had the pleasure of flying concorde LHR-JFK in the 90s. Thrilling. Fast. Not entirely comfy. Like flying inside a really fast pencil. Very little headroom and I'm short. But I remember the car alarms going off and you could hear them. I remember how quiet it was in the cabin after they shut off the after burners. I remember breaking the sound barrier. I remember being invited into the flight deck at cruising altitude and speed. I remember the food and service were absolutely impeccable. It is truly a shame that this lovely bird flies no more but I have pictures and memories to last me the rest of my life!

      Loudest thing I’ve ever heard was the takeoff of a Rockwell B-1B Lancer from an air show, it was at its maximum takeoff weight as it was brimmed with fuel for a long flight back to its home, and in order to get off the ground they locked the brakes and took the engines to full afterburner and held it for a few seconds before releasing the brakes. They managed to do an unrestricted, full afterburner spiral climb to 15,000 feet and even at that altitude it was still very audible over the din of the air show. Set off almost every car alarm in the parking lot.

      The fact we're watching this decades later with a sigh, too.

    The Concorde was nothing more than a huge fighter jet armed with caviar and champagne.

    Ah cos i drive my lorry down the stamwell moor road everyday to go to Iver and i notice that all the plains use 27l to take off but they normally come over the top of me(depending on the wind i suppose!). Mind you the past couple of days they have been useing 27r for taking off and 27l for landing.
