Красавец Ту 144

Supersonic Beauty indeed! So sad that we're living in a world where she and Concorde don't roam the skies anymore

An artifact of ancient, more advanced civilisation.

Alternate universe: She lives along with the Concorde.

In Germany there's a small town named "Sinsheim". It hosts a pretty big private museum called "Auto und Technik Museum". Among many other exponates (e.g. the Blue Flame or various military vehicles), there is an original Concorde AND a Tu 144 which can both be visited outside and inside. To my knowledge this is unique worldwide.

that thing is in surprisingly good condition despite being outside in the snow

It's amazing how such a beautiful aircraft was in practice a total disaster. It's service record and number of flaws far outweighed any gain made by it's speed. Sadly for an airplane developed to beat the Concord it ended up being a total embarrassment for it's builders. It is still one of the most beautiful aircraft ever made though.

That must be awesome, congrats on filming this beauty!

One of the coolest and most beautiful piece of trash then. lol It's quite a shame these things are not economically viable. We live in an era where the most absurd things are virtual models inside computer simulations. There are no more dreams and dumb extraordinary feats, just internet and trash talking in social media.
