Is the flight in existance now? I think it has been withdrawn from the service for the last 4 to 5 years if i am correct. Even I would love to travel in that supersonic flight between france and England. But I think they cancelled the service due to some technical problems in the Sound control. I read in an article that more than 15 million dollars were spent in the sound control of that flight system but the attempt was futile.

I wasn't wealthy enough to travel on Concord. It cost thousands of pounds but it flew incredibly quickly. That speed interested me but I didn't have the funds to ever go on it.
My teenage son is now fourteen years old and over the years he has had different interests. He was fascinated by planes when he was four to five years old. I took him the London Heathrow Airport and we viewed planes. We saw Concord.
Concord used to fly London to New York. I think it had some other routings. It crashed once I think so it stopped flying.

Hello Yuga. How are you ? Nice to see you. Yes, I had travelled on a Concord flight once. That was from Paris to Caracass, France to Venezuela, and return. That really was a memorable experience. The flights were so fast, took only about three hours, across the Atlantic Ocean. And, it was very smooth too. Once don't feel any vibrations or the feel of supersonic speed at all. I very much enjoyed those flights.

I always thought it would be cool to take a flight on one of the Concordes, but alas that never happened and I am pretty sure they do not fly them anymore. I have seen one of the retired Concordes at the Udvar-Hazy Center part of the National Air & Space Museum and that was pretty cool.

Well the speed of sound around 200000km/sec is what this cocord flight flies,this news had once ,shocked me.The passengers in it would be safe ,won' they that's what I felt to know first upon listening to the information on this flight.
The chance of me flying in that is yet a dream ,may be some day or the other day,who knows.
Many would surely pray hard to God to keep them safe and sound till the end of the journey.

I have heard that the concord's were the fastest of the lot,with speed close to sound's speed,well if its not he case,thanks for the clarification.
Anyone with low resistive power would try and not go for the flight,the speed is a factor these days,regarding the time spending,isn't.
