concorde 

British/French supersonic airliner, designed in the sixties and entered commercial service in 1976. A supreme technological success (and the only successful supersonic airliner), but catastrophic from a business point of view.

Concorde was designed when fuel was cheap, and when it didn't seem like there would be any objection to generating sonic booms over populated areas. By the time it was ready to go into commercial service, environmental concerns and fuel costs eroded most of the potential market. In the end, Concorde served only with Air France and British Airways, mostly flying on the New York - Paris and New York - London routes.

After the first fatal Concorde accident in 2000, the fleet was grounded for over a year. The decision was finally made to retire the two Concorde fleets in 2003, and the survivors were retired to museums in Germany, France, Britain, the United States, and Barbados. No supersonic successor appears likely

The last commercial Concorde flights were in October 2003.

Concorde 

1. Supersonic airplane invented in 1969, and discontinued in 2003 due to a disaster involved on that Air France flight.
2. Shortened nickname for the Universal Pictures' 1979 feature film, because its official name "The Concorde... Airport '79" is too long. It was a box office bomb and it is available for purchase on VHS, DVD, Blu-ray and digital. It is a good movie despite its unpopularity.

1. Concorde was one of the fastest planes of all time.
2. Did you watch the Concorde movie before?
