Simply it was a headache for other companies, as customers took away more pay … those who have not fallen from the other companies and are not off the market. And yes, I had problems of cost and other but it was enough to get him out of the market as they did using a single accident as an excuse.

True. But consider its overall usefulness in comparison with, say, the DC 3 or Viscount. If all airliners fail to cover development costs there will soon be no airliners at all. We have reached an economic plateau with the 747 and Airbus etc, and modern operating conditions threaten even that.

While what you are saying is true, not many of us have ever flown on Concorde and never will.

I think it’s because the person who made the video is English and probably was only able to film English examples.

It may not have made up its development costs, but it did turn a profit for BA and AF(up until the 2000 crash). it also proved that an SST was possible.

For all its impressiveness, it never paid its development costs and in Britain alone it cost more than 100 hospitals would have. And of course the reasons why there is nothing in sight to replace it is that the figures simply don’t work. In the final analysis an airliner should make a safe profit. It did not.

wonderful aircraft, but if concorde was both English AND French how comes we only get pictures of the english ones??? airfrance did operate concorde as well. Your vid, as well made as it is, is half a tribute to me.
