The Aérospatiale-BAC Concorde is a turbojet-powered supersonic passenger airliner, a supersonic transport (SST). It was a product of an Anglo-French government treaty, combining the manufacturing efforts of Aérospatiale and the British Aircraft Corporation. First flown in 1969, Concorde entered service in 1976 and continued commercial flights for 27 years.
Among other destinations, Concorde flew regular transatlantic flights from London Heathrow (British Airways) and Paris-Charles de Gaulle Airport (Air France) to New York JFK and Washington Dulles, profitably flying these routes at record speeds, in less than half the time of other airliners.
With only 20 aircraft built, their development represented a substantial economic loss, in addition to which Air France and British Airways were subsidised by their governments to buy them. As a result of the type's only crash on 25 July 2000 and other factors, its retirement flight was on 26 November 2003.
Concorde's name reflects the development agreement between Britain and France. In Britain, any or all of the type-unusual for an aircraft-are known simply as "Concorde". The aircraft is regarded by many as an aviation icon.
Concorde airlinerThe supersonic passenger aircraft was in use from 1976 to 2003, the last three years being extremely limited after the crash of an Air France Concorde at Paris on July 25, 2000.HMS ConcordeThe sailing warship HMS Concorde was originally a French ship built in 1777, and captured in 1783. It served with the British Navy until 1807.
The first Concorde flight was made in 1969. However, it did not enter service until 1976. Air France and British Airways operated all the Concordes made, although other airlines did lease them occasionally from these two. Concorde flights ceased in 2003, but all the airframes are in preservation.
The Concorde was retired on November 26, 2003.

The Concorde was built on a Wednesday.
The national airlines of the two countries that built it - British Airways and Air France.
Because it was supposed to represent peace and co-operation between the two countries. - Some hope !
France and England.
France and Great Britain jointly developed the Concorde.
Twenty were built, but only two were used for commercial service.
She was built a little before 1969. :)
