It is sad that we don't have such kind of plane any more

Last night we watched a documentary about Concorded. Oh... I don't know that it could be so fast. It is faster than the sound speed twice. And it just took 3.5 hours from London to New York. I think now this time I can only fly from my city to Beijing. It is so amazing. Due to the air crash in 2000 and this plane was not in service any more.

that is kind of scary, since if it flies so fast, it will be hard to control it or stop it when something unexpected comes along

Sometimes faster speed may be safer since there will be less time on the way

It seems strange that they stopped using it so suddenly. Other planes crash but they don't take them out of service.

Perhaps they can't make a lot of profit since not many people could afford luxurious flights.

@youless That could well be the case - and the huge planes cost a lot to run.

I thought it was a bad idea for a commercial aircraft. More suitable as a private jet.

I wonder if the crash had anything to do with the super high speed?

Boeing has their plane crash also, maybe Concorde should revive their plane.

I wonder why they could not improve the plane and launch it again. I mean in 17 years I am sure technology has improved a lot!

I think their technology is still very advanced but the cost may be the problem.

It is said that the air crash came as a great shock to the public,from then on , Concorded got less and less source of tourists and ended up being grounded.

There are many mistakes led to Concorde crash.
