The Concorde is, in reality an epic failure, the biggest financial failure in aviation history until the A380, at least Airbus managed to sell a couple hundred... Concorde had ZERO sales... a $3 Billion disaster that destroyed BAC and the UK aviation industry.

I remember the sonic booms back in the 60s from Hughes Aircraft flying around, near Marina Del Rey CA. I don't remember anyone complaining about the sound... ever. As kids, we thought the booms were pretty cool and would instantly look up to the skies to see the plane, if possible. But by the time we heard the boom, it was long gone. Good times.

yeah, but if you multiply that by a certain factor, it's bound to be insanely annoying. look up how many flights airports within a 30 mile radius of you have daily, add them all together if neccessary, then imagine that many number of booms daily. in many places, it's basically all day, everyday. plus, not everyone enjoys feeling like theyre being dive b*mbed.

In an unusual twist of irony, Concorde found assistance in selling tickets from a different sector of travel; one that was nearly wiped out by her predecessors, the early jets. That sector was the Ocean Liner operators. An unusual anachronism of the time, Cunard was still just about hanging on with the RMS Queen Elizabeth 2. However, they became quite a large buyer of one-way Concorde tickets. Cunard bought, in bulk, large numbers of Concorde tickets and bundled them with tickets for the QE2. This just barely managed to push the price of Concorde tickets down to a level where moderately well-off enthusiasts could afford to fly the Concorde, after spending a week sailing on the very last of the mighty ocean liners of the past. An unusual combination, but one that worked well for both sides.

The greatest insult to the Concorde was that the terrible fatal crash wasn't even its own fault, but that of a DC-10 that took off ahead of them that had a bad repair job done to it. The runway debris that punctured the wing tank was a poorly mended metal strip from the DC-10.

Comment of appreciation on how well this documentary is put together, to deliver a lot of interesting info in a very visual way.

Concorde is one of my favorite airliners. It's beautiful, and I wish I could have flown on it. When I was a kid, we had a field trip to JFK, and we were able to sit in a Concorde. It was super small, but I loved it. Even though I was one of those people affected by the sonic booms (I used to live 3 miles from JFK), it never bothered us to where it was an inconvenience. We just loved watching her take off and land. Excellent video!

The boom was made so you couldn't miss the show :-) "That's not a bug, it's a feature"

As a 14 year old in the seventies I was lucky enough to be shown around the Concorde factory in Toulouse by a friend of my father. I can still remember how impressed I was by the engineering,my only regret was that if it had been a few days later he could have arranged to go on one of the test flights. Sadly never did get to fly on it.

It must have been in the early 1980s when I was at Heathrow Airport and saw Concorde land and then come up close to the window gallery where we were stood. A truly magnificent sight.

I see and read so much negative press and reviews about Concorde, particularly from countries that didn't have a supersonic airliner, you would think it was a disaster from start to finish.... and then you see it. Utterly breathtaking. And proof that form follows function and its beauty is a product of its abilities. It has the purity of shape that is only matched by some birds, in my humble opinion.

Fun fact: America banned the Concorde from flying over Ameican soil after conducting a government test named "Bongo II". Bongo happened over Oaklahkma City and conducted about 7 sonic booms over the city a day to see how the residents would react. Many of the tallest buildings had their windows broken and many residents filed for property damage.

I was 10 when I flew the Soviet Concord (Tupolev-144) from Moscow to Alma-Ata, Kazakhstan, with my Dad. It was April 1978. Flight number 499. Dad told me that the cost was almost 70 rubles per one ticket -- a half of a median monthly salary in the USSR back then. I recently asked him if that price was for a round trip or just for a one-way ticket. Unfortunately, he didn't remember. I guess it was a one-way ticket's price. But what he did remember was the fact that there was no discount for a child -- in the Soviet Union, bus, railroad and airplane tickets for children of the age of 13 and younger were discounted from 15% to 50% off of the full price. I still remember how the flight attendant announced that we would break the speed barrier in 30 seconds, then she started a count-down -- "10; 9; 8... 2; 1; we are supersonic now!" I remember some sort of a very light jolt, and that was it! Then, mesh screens were automatically rolled down to cover the windows -- later I was explained that during the supersonic phase of the flight, the windows would get really hot, that's why a decision was made to cover them with those screens to make sure that nobody burns their skin while flying. As far as I can remember, other than that, the flight was not very different from any other flight on any regular commercial jet.

your animations are out of this world mate. keep going!!!!

As a boy growing up in the 60s and 70s, I was fascinated by any type of aircraft. But the one which totally captured my imagination was the Concorde. It truly had the wow factor. Fortunately, I was able to fly on a British Airways Concorde from New York to London in 1999, approximately a year before the fatal accident of an Air France Concorde while taking off from Paris in 2000. One of my (few) “bucket list” items well and truly ticked off.

This has to be my favorite Mustard vid of all time. As far as I’m concerned it’s not Concorde’s fault that we mere mortals are too namby pamby and poor for her, she was in a league of her own, a masterpiece that will never be equaled. Regardless of what the future of supersonic flight holds, the triumph over adversity and design genius that produced her was a one off, I’m glad it happened in my lifetime.

In West Cornwall we could hear Concorde breaking the sound barrier as she accelerated over the Atlantic I loved hearing it and still miss that distant bang on a clear summers evening.

I flew on it a few times in the 80's with my dad. Loved it when the screen would show you how fast you were going.

Still grateful I could fly the Concorde - I remember I had a business meeting over in The Big Apple. Flew the Concorde. Got there in three hours, attended the meeting, and came back just in time for dinner.

The de Havilland Comets faliures were due to the square windows creating stress fractures in the pressurised fuselage. That's why jets all have rounded windows now.

The Concorde captured my friends' imagination. We dreamed about it conversationally on our vacation flights between the US and Europe. However, on vacation the extra hours in the air on a normal jet plane weren't really a concern and saving a lot of money with the cheaper tickets was good too.

I was doing a shopfitting job at Harrods in 2003 and we watched the retirement flight from the roof, 3 concordes in formation. I also remember some of the lads were happy about it because they lived under the Heathrow flightpath and said their letterboxes and windows would rattle everytime a concorde took off.

I even wondered if a bomb had gone off or a plane crashed outside. It wasn't a Concorde of course, just the military before even they were banned from doing it over populated areas.
