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.

@3nasacova Hey, hows the 747 doing? Think i see one out my window right now, and another one.

[mohiahmed1]

hehe, the boom made her pregnant ;D

[Pallafintius]

@Papsmeass would you happen to know the name of that song or composition by any chance?

[Pallafintius]

@FOX11GUY Yeah ofcourse they can break windows. But did you hear what they said? That the only problem was the noise. The boom was not powerful enough to break the windows. They were flying too high.

[AGrandt]

The Concorde were a marvel of an aircraft, marred by the rising fuel cost and environmental conciousness.

I wonder how long it'll be, if ever, before we see another supersonic airliner. I doubt there is a market to carry the development cost.

Love the 70's music at the beginning.
