Concorde, for 27 years, was arguably the pinnacle of commercial aviation. The jet traveled at over 1350mph and changed the perception of travel forever.
The plane was able to fly from London to New York in around 3 hours, on a flight today this would take 8 hours. The plane was ultimately an incredible achievement, which unfortunately suffered many setbacks which eventually led to its slow death.
This video looks back at the development, operations, and retirement of this iconic aircraft.
