He made a mistake.
Concorde DID NOT have canards. Like the Shuttle, Concorde could maintain perfectly adequate pitch control without the need for canards. The Russian SST (the Tu-144) DID have canards because their wing shape was not as sophisticated as Concorde's or the Shuttle's.
In fact, the prototype Tu-144 didn't have canards either - but the Russians found they needed them to give the aircraft decent pitch control.

Comments about how boring these lectures are reflect on the nature of those making the comments, not the lectures or the lecturers. This is high quality stuff and the information emanating from the talks is pure gold. Sadly, at least one of the lecturers (Aaron Cohen) passed away last year so it is even more important that we have access to this resource. None of these chaps are geting any younger.

no, but you qualify as the biggest dumbass for not finding this interesting :)

Is this the blue collar comedy tour?

Does this qualify as the most boring video on youtube ever? I challenge you to find a better one.

Slides? Come on guys! This was an MIT "Lecture" on Aerodynamics and Systems Engineering and you want "slides?" Come on, folks.
It would have been better had it been 3hrs long instead of 1hr and 50min. You just got some inside knowledge about people who were actually involved in the most successful Space Program the world has ever known and all you can come up with is that fact that you wanted "slides?"
What on earth......!

what i would give to be able to attend these lessons. thanks for sharing.
How anyone could call this video boring is beyond me! It's so rich in information and from a guy who designed the Apollo spacecraft AND the space shuttle! I think it's one of the best aerodynamics videos on youtube. Thank you so much for posting it.
