Default Concorde\'s last flight

Forgive me for being a tad nostalgic, but this plane has a special place in the heart of every Bristolian.

I can remember it flying over the centre of the City when it was being test flown and everyone gazing up at the sky as this beautiful (and that's the only word for it) plane flew overhead. And boy was it loud. However many times you saw it, you still could not refrain from looking up at the magnificent white bird shining in the sky.

My uncle actually worked on it at Filton where it was designed and test flown.

Never flew in it, surprise surpise, but I would have loved to.


So is supersonic flight a thing of the past?
