    I know all that, but Concorde didn't. So you prefer the SR-71 I take.

    Plus, whats withe the upper cases. I sense hostility in your reply.

  • @brightlights456X Do you know why the SR71 leaks fuel?

    IT IS DESIGNED THAT WAY. The plane will be ''loose'' during take off, and upon reach cruise speeds at over MAch3, the body will expand due to the intense heat from friction. The expansion will then fit the ''gaps''.

  • @maria123e they hired angels

  • 4 reheated olym-PI engines.

  • the view head-on above the clouds is fantastic.

  • @georgaalty I thought he did...

  • @georgaalty Of course if he says 'for' NY then you are correct.! I didnt have time to watch it again!

  • @mikel1982 That may be Mike, but having taken off from NY - he would have been flying East and therefore away from the sun. Hence his altitude was responsible for the Sunrise in this instance.

  • It's a real shame that ONE incedent grounded this aircraft. If this were the case, we wouldn't be flying at all. I would have saved up and paid $10,000 to ride this aircraft. It's a shame....way ahead of it's time.

  • @georgaalty sorry for the late reply but your assertion he see the sun rising from the west due to climb rate is wrong. In fact, the Concorde flew faster than than the solar terminator, which is what separates the night world from the day. That is why the sun appears to rise in the west, as it's catching up to daytime.
