I flew on BA Concorde just once in the 80’s, and as we were close to landing at JFK, the captain said to us “ we are about to land, and the 747 that left LHR at the same time, is now halfway across the Atlantic !” It reminded us of just how fast that plane flew. It was a shame when it was taken out of service, but I’m so grateful for at least being able to enjoy it, just once

Woah thats a big thing to tell people you flew the Concorde nowadays people probably won't believe you

In the 70s they made a test. A Concorde and a 747 started a the same time in Paris to New York. The Concorde landed in New York, load out the passengers take the new passengers in and flow back to Paris. The Concorde landed at Paris again before the 747 has reached New York. Thats just impressive and awesome. Concorde youre the best of the best !!!!!!!!!!!

Magnifique ...le Concorde que j’ai souvent vu décoller en bout de piste en 1974 à Dakar ...lors des essais décollages ...atterrissages avec Le Commandant André Turcat ...que de beaux souvenirs de ce bel Avion dans le ciel ...

The ending looks like the final commercial flight of Air France's Concorde. I had the opportunity to fly JFK/CDG/JFK back in April of 2003 on the Concorde. It was spectacular and members of the cockpit and cabin crews were the absolute best! Being a commercial pilot, I was welcomed into the cockpit during flight while flying at mach 2.01 at an altitude of 60,000 feet - an experience I will never forget. Thanks for posting this!

I was a car transporter driver when this plane was around. I delivered to Heathrow every night at 7, concorde would take off. It set all the car alarms off it was so loud, and that was on the outskirts of the airport, I used to love watching it, including the sound. They have a concorde exprience at Grantley Adams airport in Barbados if you ever visit, respect.

Merci pour cette vidéo, je travaillais en piste lors de son dernier atterrissage à Roissy. Son passage en vitesse lente au dessus de la piste un régal ! Puis cet atterrissage avec son train avant qui est resté longtemps en l'air, que du bonheur... Merci pour cette vidéo qui me rappelle tant de bons souvenirs.

Oh Concorde ! Le plus beau de tous les avions de ligne du monde, le plus élégant et le plus racé. Quel dommage que sa carrière se soit terminée si tristement, qu' on n' ait pas trouvé de solution pour le faire évoluer écologiquement. Dépassé ? Peut-être pas, mais trop onéreux en carburant. Il est inégalé jusqu' à ce jour. Il restera à jamais dans nos coeurs. Ce fut une belle aventure franco-britannique.

Il n’est pas dépassé, après concilier vitesse et écologie c’est illusoire, la performance et la vitesse n’ont jamais été rentable Le Concorde est à l’aviation ce que la Formule 1 est à la voiture Mais cette avion laissera une trace indélébile, un sentiment de fierté nationale, un symbole nationale qu’on aurait bien besoin en ce moment dans notre pays…

As you said in your comment, this fantastic aircraft was the most beautiful aircraft made ever. To see this aircraft flying in the air today is not possible because we all live under the greatest lie of all.... Climate change theory. Unfortunately under this irrational rule, all the engines ( petrol or diesel) have to disappear, so the supersonic engines don't stand a chance flying over Europe's airspace 😢😢😢

Die Concorde bricht alle Rekorde! Nicht nur in Durst und Lautstärke,nein auch in Schnelligkeit und vor allem in Schönheit!

what a beautiful lady she is :) this isnt just a plane it is a work of art no other passenger plane could and never will look as good as her

I had the pleasure of flying her once from New York to Paris. What an experience! The sensation was incredible as was the view of dark blue skies and the curvature of the earth as we cruised at 60,000’ above all signs of clouds and turbulence. I never forgot the service either - amongst other delights, lobster Thermidor and rack of lamb accompanied by vintage wines, culminating in a suburb vintage Armagnac. I confess I was a little wobbly when we landed...

Sincèrement, je ne m'en lasse pas et ne m'en lasserai jamais.

This aircraft started design stage when I was at school in 1961. It did not enter commercial service until 1973 , it was always a financial disaster but it led to many amazing developments in aviation technology. It had ordinary analogue dials but the controls operated by a digital computer and it was truly fly by wire, now the norm.

Fantastic video...thank you for posting. She was a beauty in every way. An enormous loss to the aviation world. 27 years of magic.....

Que lindo pássaro de metal!!! Lamentável o fim desta grande aventura da tecnologia de aviação! Fechou-se assim uma era de glória na aviação comercial, no mundo. Ainda recordo-me, nos anos 80, quando o Concorde fazia escala em Dakar, cidade onde eu morava na época, na ligação Paris - Rio de Janeiro, da Air France. Saudosas memórias, quando iamos ao aeroporto internacional Yoff, só para vê-lo a pousar e a decolar.

La Concorde was a stark ravingly BEAUTIFUL plane, one of the prettiest and aesthetically pleasing ever created for passenger or military. I was very sorry to see her decommissioned! Thanks for the memorial upload!

Tan lindos que eran esos aviones Concord, es una làstima y Nostalgia de que ya.No Esten. Me encantaba verlos aunque fuera en videos. Andrés Siles, Managua.

ever since i have been young i have thought of the concord as being a fighter jet that carried passengers. amazing thing they built!

I remember seeing concorde for the first time at jfk while I was sitting in another plane holding short of the runway. It came by and flared right next to where I was and touched down, I remember it looking a lot smaller in person than I had expected. What a beautiful looking airplane in flight, glad I got to see it.

Quando era jovem tive o privilégio de ver esse avião cruzar Campo Grande indo para o aeroporto no Rio de Janeiro, infelizmente ele não é mais fabricado, mas é o mais bonito avião comercial que vi até hoje. Muito bom vídeo, parabéns

This is one of my all time favorite aviation videos!! THANK YOU!! WHAT A GORGEOUS PLANE!! 🛫✈️🛬😎👍 R.I.P. Concorde!!

Como eu me lembro dessas aeronaves maravilhosas passando pelo céu daqui do Rio de Janeiro...era muito lindo...👍

The Concorde is fantastic on any dimension you can name. Any problems that it had that caused the senseless panic that grounded her could have been overcome. My God look at the engineering it took just to bring her to the sky.

i had a female captain on the way back from malaga to bristol once, and that was one of the most gentle landing ive ever had, plus my flying instructor is a woman hu used to fly for the air force and shes a brilliant pilot

Tive o prazer de ver várias aproximação no aeroporto do Galeão Rio de Janeiro, morava em Caxias , coisa linda de se ver.

I saw the Concorde once back in the 80s at the airport of Rochambeau in French Guiana while passing there in a school bus on the way to college.The same day when i was back home about 7:30pm,the concorde was taking off.We heard the noise of the engines when the jet was on the runway taking off,our house was 14km away from the airport!!!! I will never forget the noise this plane made!!! This is surely one of the reasons why this plane wasn't successful commercially.

I've been in exactly this plane several moths ago. It's in the "Technik Museum Sinsheim" about 1h. south of Frankfurt in germany. Great plane, great vid!

Recuerdo que en Cuba a raíz de la construcción del Concorde las noticias eran mínimas o casi nulas,había una pequeñisima hemeroteca escondida, atendida por la Embjada de Gran Bretaña, en la Universidad de la Habana que un amigo descubrió y ahí nos pudimos enterar del proyecto y su culminación, fue una obra maestra para su época, al mirar en su cabina se puede ver la ausencia de relojes digitales y no creo mucho de computación como la entendemos ahora. 2 años antes de terminar mi carrera cerraron la hemeroteca según nos dijeron por remodelación y creo hasta ahora no han terminado.

Concorde, the elegant plane!

A truely incredible feat of cross-nation achievemnt. This always has been, and always will be, one of the most graceful aircraft ever built. Many tears will have been shed at the conclusion of this and British Airways flight BA002.

Cada decolagem e pouso do Concórdia é um show de elegância que pena não poder ver mas desde aviões.

A cada voo do concorde, era uma façanha, uma obra de arte, um evento memoravel, pena que ele saiu fora de sena.

Vi aterrizar y despegar varias veces a esta maravilla de la aviación en el Aeropuerto de Gran Canaria/Islas Canarias y me dejó impactado. Fantástico avión.

I still have problems to understand how the Concorde as a passenger jet could fly Mach 2 over long distances while even most military jets in our days are not faster.

Think about surface areas: Concorde and the Tornado. Concorde has fuel even in the vertical stabiliser. It cruises around FL 550 - FL 600 in a straight line (more or less) Tornado is thrashed around low level 250 ft - 2000ft round hills, the throttles in constant motion, as is the control stick. All this adds up to a very uneconomical method of transport…….. and don’t forget - FastJet crews sit on their MB ejection seats, hard and unforgiving - and ‘Tea and stickies’ starts at 16:30 in the Officers Mess, although most men prefer Toast and Marmite (or Bovril if available!)😅 Love to all, stay SAFE XXX

Fighters need high maneuverability. Bombers on the other hand have some models capable of high Mach speeds because they fly higher, straight and the faster they can deliver the payload the better.

Absolutely! And the aircraft isn't bad looking either! Seriously though, it's a great shame it was eventually discontinued despite Branson offering £1 for it. I managed one trip from JFK to LHR back in the 80s with my then wife and young daughter. Magical. It was half empty and we got to meet the captain and first officer on the flight deck. I have a photo of that with the captain wearing a hot towel on his head brought in by the senior flight attendant. The first officer landed it and it was perfect. Great memories.

Espetacular.Avistei 1 Concorde em cima de New York, quando estava chegando nessa Cidade.

Espectacular el Concorde creo que era adelantado a su tiempo deberia de ser una marivilla volar en esa aeronave

Great video, very well done! She was such an apex acievement in human travel--sadly missed. I love the 747 jumbo but the Concorde had the glamour of high speed and that body!! NYC to LHR in 3 hours?! Wish I'd flown aboard her, but maybe someday again soon we'll have something as useful and beautiful.....

man..what a rate of climb! Imagine if we stayed the course-this is a 1960s design-we could have super efficient STs today!

Les années passent, la technologie évolue toujours.. pourtant avec Concorde c'est le seul moment ou mon père peut me fermer ma g.., Paris-New York en 3h.. Vas y fils fais en autant !! Concorde une sacrée aventure!

You're certainly correct in your summation of Concorde's fallibility, but I would suggest that subsequent development would be able to find solutions to move this form of air travel forward...We should not just throw up our hands and abandon scientific and mechanical development. Richard Branson is certainly not stopping his supersonic aircraft's development because of the points you have mentioned...Cheers Mr Andreocity.

The contrast is in the inside, Avionics from early 1970's obviously updated on the inside. It had a unique variable bypass turbofan --- turbo jet engine. The turbo fan component working during the subsonic flight and then the bypass kicks in to create a turbojet at high mach and supersonic flight. The engineers who achieved it during the end of sixtees at Roll royce and british aircraft industry were geniuses.

What an amazing piece of technology.

REALLY!!! THE MOST BEAUTIFUL PLANE EVER !!!!

I like the Power Chords! Nice touch!

Congrats ! Has Been perfect the music and aircraft , the Concord was a big bird !
