The Concorde was first flown supersonic in March 1969, but was not used commercially until 1976. It was retired on 26 November 2003. A prototype of the Soviet Tupolev Tu-144 first flew on 31 December 1968, two months before the Concorde but did not break the sound barrier until 5 June 1969. It's first commercial flight was on 26 December 1975 and it was retired on 1 June 1978.
Supersonic waves are used in supersonic flights. They are also used in body scanning and used to detect faults in metal.

The Tupolev Tu-144 holds the title for the first supersonic passenger flight, ahead of the Concorde. However, the Tu-144 also holds the dubious distinction of being the first to end supersonic passenger service, lasting only 55 flights.
The first supersonic passenger flight was March 2, 1969. Concorde flew regular transatlantic flights from London Heathrow and Paris-Charles de Gaulle Airport to New York JFK, Washington Dulles and Barbados, in half the time of other flights. Concorde was retired on November 26, 2003.

It depends
The amount of flights that go into Aberdeen every day changes daily. There's no way to say how many flights go in daily, just like the amount of flights out changes every day.
The Kennedy Space Center in Orlando, Florida has simulated flights and IMAX presentations of space launches. It is one of the most popular visitor destinations in the area but they do not offer the general public access or flights on any of the NASA launches.
