A decade after the Air France Flight 4590 disaster outside Paris, which played a role in sealing Concorde's fate and bringing the supersonic age to a close, this documentary uses archive footage and reconstructions to tell the story of the airliner and it's development history. Engineers, pilots and VIP passengers discuss the string of bad luck it encountered, from rocketing oil prices to concerns over noise and pollution.

The super rich would know exactly what it costs to fly only "famous fools" would not know the price. Warren Buffett would know the price. CEOs that didn't know the price are lousy CEOs who don't give a damn about their shareholders and I would fire those that did not know. It was not a stroke of genius it was a test to find out fools and crooks. You still went broke eventually. Can you imagine a CEO not knowing the cost of his expenses - doesn't last long.

Does anyone know how much a ticket on Concorde cost back then?
I'm really curious.
In any case: RIP Concorde.
You are missed.
