  • Abstract
    THERE CAN??T have been many better sights than Concorde for showing cutting-edge technology in its pomp. From the graceful tip of its tapering nose to the imposing broad spread of its delta wings, Concorde was symbolic of engineering at its best. Flying at up to Mach 2.04 (that??s around 1,350mph), it was twice as fast as any other commercial airliner in the sky. You could get from London to New York in well under four hours.
