iam a grown man and got tears in my eyes ... fantastic ❤

No matter how un-eco friendly she would appear now, losing her from the skies is a travesty. Concorde was beautiful and everybody knew it by sight & sound - I miss seeing her over my home daily plying the routes across the pond! A true Anglo-French miracle

Concorde was the only plane that could stir such memories and feelings. Such an awesome beautiful flying bird. It flew overhead once when I was travelling near London Heathrow. The sound and power shook the car. Such a tragedy they put this plane out of service. Years ahead of its time . Even now 2022 I still marvel at this beautiful and majestic plane...

During the construction of the M25 (yes there was a time when that traffic was somewhere else) our site offices were near the end of the Heathrow runway. We used to pause the meeting to watch it head off to New York. Noise wasn’t an issue, it seemed no louder than the other jet aircraft. It was just the sheer grace and beauty that stopped our work for a few seconds before we returned to discussing mud and concrete. Concorde is sadly missed.

Respect to all those who designed and built this thrillingly beautiful and powerful flying machine. You can sense the power as it is awaiting clearance for take off. Moving footage.

The aircraft was way ahead of its time. Beautiful machine.

I was so fortunate to make the trip for New York and London and back. What a wonderful experience and one I’ll never forget.

The most beautiful plane ever build. Thanks for posting. :-)

The most beautiful aircraft in the world,gives you shivers watching her race along the runway and then soar high into the heavens like an Angel going home.

I remember when that thing came in. We were shopping in Stevenage with Mum and Dad and suddenly the whole town came to a standstill. This beautiful sleek noisy m.f. flew over. Fantastic.

In my mind this was the sadest thing happening in flight history. Would have loved to see it flying in our skies for ever, a great honour for England/France developement.

As an Aussie only saw the Concorde once. Driving into Heathrow, and it took off directly ahead of and over us. A truly memorable sight.

Wow. It's so elegant and beautiful, then it unleashes such awesome power, like a fine race horse. It's a shame that we didn't keep at least one of these magnificent machines flying.

GREAT finding this brilliant video, especially as I was one of the passengers! Landed in LHR after a quick flight up around the Outer Hebrides. Coached back to Luton. This was my first Concorde flight (of four) and a treasured memory. I believe we did a slow fly past after take-off for the benefit of the gathered supersonic fans.

My dad worked on concorde. Took me and my son to watch the trials. We all loved watching it fly over my parents house. They're gone and Concorde. Sad to say.😢😢

I saw Concorde perform at an airshow and it was far and away the loudest thing I ever heard in my life. Absolutely awesome. 😊

As a girl it was my dream when I grow up once in my life to fly with the majestic and beautiful Concorde. Unfortunately it was to late. At least I had the chance to visit and get inside the Concorde at the Technology Museum Sinsheim. I was fascinated , overwhelmed and sad at the same time. What a feeling.

Still the most incredible plane ever built!!

The most beautiful plane in the fleet and a plane truly missed. R.I.P. Concorde

The speed at which it gets up to take off speed is obviously faster than a regular jet. You can almost see the speed surges happening every few seconds. What a fascinating piece of machinery!

I miss Concorde - the most beautiful aircraft ever made!

I miss seeing this beautiful aircraft flying over my house. I was always in awe of her.

Had one fly over our old house once when it was in service, it wasn’t particularly high either and it made the entire house shake! Now it was still high enough, we aren’t talking tree top skimming here! Awesome power... I’ll never forget that. Shame it was scrapped.

Back in thee late 19 90's and early 00's I would walk home from Mottingham station and hear a roaring above my head , look up and see Concord racing across the sky . What a beautiful sight

The most magnificent machine ever built. French style shoved to the edge of space by British Rolls-Royce at the speed of a jet fighter... Exceptional Achievement.

My god absolutely and utterly stunning aircraft, she is very sadly missed.

Gone, but not forgotten. Simply the most beautiful commercial aircraft ever invented. Considering this was created over fifty years ago, we are actually going backwards technologically.

Beautiful footage, thank you! What a gorgeous bird she was ❤️

To me The Concorde was and still is the most beautiful thing ever to fly.

Without doubt the most beautifully designed passenger aircraft ever made. Such a pity it was ‘retired’!

I had the privilege of going aboard one of the prototypes (002) a few years ago. Even had the chance to talk with some of the designers - what a day that was. One of the rare occasions where the French actually co-operated with us to come up with the most impressive aircraft ever built. The engineering was amazing and I was quite surprised at how small the aircraft was inside.

Most beautiful man made machine ever

Saw Concorde when it flew around NZ ... ABSOLUTELY STUNNING!!!

My parents were fairly well traveled and they both used to contend, there was nothing like that flight. For several years they were blessed to experience this amazing art, and for me, it is sad I will never be able to fly Concorde. Wow.... still so special!!!

Seeing this video I can't help wondering at the skill of pilots avoiding a tail strike as they rotated to lift-off. The rear overhang was enormous. That's awesome.

My mum flew on Concorde in the nineties, from Leeds Bradford Airport to Luton. It was a special flight. She said it was fabulous. We used to stand on the hill at the back of Leeds/Bradford airport and watch Concorde land and take off when ever it came. We will never see its like again. Great video thank you.

I remember when concorde would fly over our house when young, literally made the house shake, you wouldn't be able to hear the TV clearly...was crazy to watch fly over, you could feel its power miles away.

What a fantastic sight. I was working as a subcontractor at Casablanca airport in October 1974, what a privilege to see it take off many times in the three weeks I was there. The BAC people worked very hard, 7 full days a week, they were all doing their bit for the project, they were great bunch to work with. Happy days.

I grew up at a distance with the bird of beauty. When i was a schoolboy living in Cornwall, I use to hear the booms as she went super sonic heading to the USA and Later on when i was in the RAF based near London, we use to pause our volleyball game to watch her coming into land at Heathrow a few miles away. Even at a distance we could tell it was her. And later while visiting The Tower of London for the day off in the distance i got to see all 3 Concode's coming into land for the last time.

Pure and simply.... the greatest aeroplane ever built.

I missed seeing that magnificent aircraft when I was living in Brooklyn New York I was literally 10 minutes away from JFK International Airport God bless all those who put together that incredible aircraft

Stunning. What is really noticeable is the acceleration and time to rotate is truly unbelievable, the power to weight ratio must be far higher than normal aircraft. Absolutely unbelievable sight, would have loved to have seen it take off like that, only ever saw it go over especially on Grand National day it always flew over Aintree in Liverpool. Such a shame, should have never been retired. 😢

Such an aviation tour de force...truly and sorely missed! This vehicle was way ahead of its time👍

Concorde was the pinnacle of aviation grace/elegance.

WOW! When my brother and I were young kids, we were mesmerized by this plane. Fantastic piece of human engineering, particularly for the time, sorely missed.

I worked for TWA as a flight attendant based at JFK in 1986 saw it almost every week ..Happy days 👍🇬🇧🇺🇲

One of the most beautiful I’ve ever seen!

The most beautiful airplane ever build, history here will not repeat itself, it is sad that we don't see this legendary bird fly again, I love it since I was a kid and now I'm 48 years old and i still search about its videos to watch it fly hearing the sound of its engines, real enjoyment for me.

The most beautiful airplane ✈️✈️✈️✈️ for travel

Remember seeing it landing and taking off here in Miami , it was such a wonderful aircraft, ahead of His Time. It was like a slow motion Bird taking off. My cousin work in the cleaning crew of those planes , said it was like a spaceship, just a Gem . ✈️✈️🇬🇧🇫🇷💯

My son’s & I were able to see the Concord take off from Ontario Airport California back in the early ‘80’s! It was Very Impressive! And FAST!!!

That was such a beautiful aircraft but oh boy so LOUD, There was a time I occasionally attended court in Reading to support the clients of the charity I worked for. Reading was on the direct flight path from Heathrow to the Atlantic. The clerk would say to us, "At around 11 o'clock Concorde goes over. You will not be able to make yourself heard for the noise so don't even try!" It was true. Where I live is very close to Farnborough, the home of the famous air show. We were in the garden one day when there was this huge roar and one of the Concorde prototypes zoomed over from the east before curving round to go back the the airfield. It was really low and just amazing. Not going very fast, not aiming for supersonic speeds it what can only have been a flight of a few minutes. Magical.

I had one fly over my head driving past JFK in the late 90's. It was landing and it was so loud it shook the ground. So impressive. I'll never forget it.

For me... the Concorde was the most beautiful airplane that ever flew.

speedbird we loved you and miss you

This glorious Speedbird looked like it was doing Mach 2 even on the runway! The Greatest plane ever built, no question.

an aircraft that still had lots to give, will be missed

What a GREAT takeoff shot! I flew on Concorde from LHR to JFK on Sept. 14, 2003. Fantastic flight!

My son and I were there to watch her on every visit to Luton…..absolutely awesome spectacular memory! 😝

when Concorde was still in service and I had to go to Reading for business, I always ensured I was there around 11am for when it passed over. The crackle from those 4 Olympus engines was wonderful to hear.

Absolutely marvellous! I remember driving along the road in Filton and the stop lights started flashing, then all of a sudden the car started jumping around it was Concord just on my right side on full afterburners bloody fantastic 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧

I saw her flying in Barbados in 1996. So loud and beautiful. Sadly missed. Fuel efficient engines and safety upgrades and we could have a charger plane still flying today.... we definitely need a successor

The Concord was an epic aeroplane,otwithstanding the environmental impacts of such high performance technology. I was about 10years old, when Dad took the family to Kingsford Smith Airport,to watch the arrival of the first Concord to come to Australia. Very, very loud, along with tremendous dark plumes of exhaust on the take-off. Such was life in the early 1970's,blissfully ignorant of the damage to the environment air travel is. Thanks for the upload, a slice of nostalgia 👍😊

I live under the 27 approach to Heathrow, sometimes aircraft fly directly overhead at around 4000'. Concorde always stopped me in my tracks, absolutely majestic aircraft, beautiful and much missed.

An absolute beauty of a flying machine.. sadly missed .. well done all who conceived and built her and well done to the sky jockeys who flew her and the teams who maintained her .. very very well done ❤❤❤

Truly the most beautiful and awesome aircraft ever made - goosebumps watching this - thank you for posting!

A beautiful bird. The only airplane that people would stop and watch. Phil Collins flew to USA on one at Live Aid, it flew over Wembley Stadium to the cheers from that huge crowd. Oddly enough, it was tiny inside by comparison to other contemporary aircraft and window seats were not for those of a large stature! I was fortunate to be given official access to a 'few' Concordes at Heathrow one Sunday morning. Although I never flew in one, I have sat in a pilot's seat! What amazed me most was how much the structure moved around while walking inside it. I wouldn't say it bounced, but it was certainly not like standing on solid ground! Marvelous aircraft, sadly missed by many.

Thank you very much for this priceless footage. RIP Concorde.

She has beautiful graceful lines. I smiled just watching her slowly rising and moving to take off. What a testimony to human creativity; we can fly…like the birds.

One of the best examples of engineering in all of history. Hail Concorde

I worked right next to the runway from where Concorde took off to New York every morning at 11 am . An awe inspiring sight and sound and the ground shook whilst the world stopped and watched. Unbelievable.

I saw Speedbird over Glasgow with the Red Arrows days before her demise. I could have cried. An aircraft I grew up with. Sorely missed.

This was an absolutely beautiful aircraft

I love the story of how, when the Concorde first made its first commercial flight in '76, and Elton John was touring, Princess Anne was at one of his shows, and she was asked if she liked it, and she said "yes; it was louder than the Concorde!" So Elton called it the "Louder Than The Concorde" Tour!🤣

I have seen Concorde on the ground and in the air. She was a thing of great beauty - and smaller than I ever imagined.

I miss these aircraft so much.

Went in the cockpit of concorde 1995 for my 5th birthday I miss these planes

This is what we call the future in the past.... what a terrible pity the beautiful bird is gone, Bon voyage Concorde !!!

Concorde was a Goddess. A shame to lose the most stunning aircraft designed and built in aviation history. A thrill of a lifetime NYC -> London Heathrow: 1994.

So, I grew up in Caracas and years ago my parents had some friends who live right next door to the international airport in Maiquetia. Next to the fence across the runway. We once went to visit them and I kept hearing all these airplanes flying to land at the airport so I asked for permission to climb the stairs to the house's roof to see this happening. A few minutes after I got there I hear this roar coming from out of nowhere and this little dot in the sky became bigger by the second when I realized it was the Concorde, it flew so close over me I thought I could touch it! An absolutely magical experience.

Still the most stunning aircraft created.

It was amazing and completely unforgettable flying in her from NYC to LHR ... she was like a rocket

I remember her flying over my house regularly, Banking left and heading towards Heathrow airport. Absolutely majestic.

As a young man I worked at Manchester Airport, hardstanding reconstruction. Stood under it ( more or less) as it took off. To a young me it seemed more 'rocket' than plane.

My favourite bird with her best looking livery

I flew the rocket in 1996. Awesome

Always spectacular. Thanks.

Ahh those Rolls Royce engines! She was beautiful..saw her once flying into Leeds/ Bradford years ago.

Bring her back 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

Bloody hell, this glamour girl could lift from ANY runway!

One of the most charismatic aeroplanes ever created. Used to love watching it.

When I watched this, it reminded me of just how magnificent the Concorde was, and seeing her lift off the ground made me teary. A beautiful machine. Tu me manques, Mme. Concorde.

4:00 is where the magic starts!

I’m not normally in Luton, but like this beautiful bird, leaving is always best

I remember watching the Concorde fly into and out of dulles Airport in Washington d.c. back in 70s

A friend of mine was an air hostess on Concorde; blonde and full of grace; two of a kind.

You thought that a vulcan was noisy, then you hear the more powerful engines roar

Jesus that was about 0-230 mph in under 20 seconds!

I flew on Concorde on 20th September 1997 with my dear partner from Heathrow. It was a supersonic champagne flight over Atlantic and back to Heathrow. No words can describe the fantastic feeling of that magical flight especially being able to see a BLACK sky over you almost on the edge of the universe and a slight curvature of the earth. Overwhelming. I'll never forget those that experience and no ordinary flight can come close to that feeling. Our Concorde is now resting in Bristol. We have visited it once and wished to repeat those extraordinary moments. We have seen Concorde departure a few times on air shows and a final one from Heathrow on 17th October 2003. I did cry. I will never hear that unique roar and won't see a beautiful shape of that masterpiece fly again. Fantastic era ended. I'm lucky that I was part of it. 😢

Concorde was Queen of the Skies. A beautiful bird and even seeing her take-off on this video has stirred the emotions. Everyone loved her, even those who never got to fly in her.
