HOW Answer The aircraft is designed for supersonic flight. It has very powerful engines and a delta-shape wing with airfoil designed to create lift above Mach 1 speed. The nose of the a/c pivots down for landing because when retracted there is limited veiw out of the cockpit windows. This is required because the longer nose makes it faster.
If you mean what was so special about Concorde then, Concorde went mach 2 that's twice the speed of sound, it carried people that fast. Really I think its amazing! :)
mach 2.03
High and fast
because it was too fast
Perhaps you are thinking of the Concorde, a supersonic jet that flew from 1969 till it was retired in 2003. It was so fast that a flight from New York to Paris, which normally took about 8 hours on the typical airline, only took 3 1/2 hours on the Concorde.
Concordes were fast. the only supersonic passenger jet.
Cconcorde top speed is 2.03 mach.

There used to be, the Concorde was a fast jet that could go faster than the speed of sound and it flew so high you could see the curvature of the Earth. Unfortunately, all Concorde planes stopped flying in 2003.
mainly b/c it was built to be fast. HUGE Engines, sleek, needle-like fuselage.
the concord flew mach3 from what I`ve researched
