What was it like to ride the fastest commercial airliner? We take a look at the interior of Concorde.

On March 2, 1969, the Concorde took flight for the first time, ushering in a new era of supersonic travel. A marvel of engineering, this iconic airliner could cruise at Mach 2.04, cutting ...

There was the little-known Russian Tupolev-144 and Concorde, a Franco-British supersonic airliner operated by British Airways and Air France from 1976 to 2003.

Concorde was a truly remarkable engineering achievement, a testament to human ingenuity, curiosity, and audacity, especially considering it first flew in 1969 a few months before Apollo 11 landed on ...

What happened to the Concorde? The Concorde jet, which was grounded in 2003, was the only supersonic commercial airliner that ever flew, and had its maiden flight in 1969.

In 1973, scientists aboard the Concorde 001 achieved a groundbreaking feat by observing a 74-minute total solar eclipse. By ...

Boom Supersonic aims to revive supersonic passenger flight with its Overture airliner, focusing on "boomless cruise" to mitigate the sonic boom issue that grounded Concorde. Overture's design ...

A startup wants to revive the Concorde for the generations of flyers that missed out, without the noisy boom and the up to $20,000 ticket prices.

At a reported cost of $200 million per aircraft, that represents significant market confidence, though industry veterans remember similar commitments for Concorde that never materialized.

On June 30, 1973, the Concorde 001 prototype—a supersonic aircraft designed for test flights—took off from Las Palmas in the Canary Islands, heading towards the path of the solar eclipse over the ...

The Spike S-512 Diplomat will be able to fly from New York to Paris in under four hours, using high-tech engineering to minimize its sonic boom.
