The Concorde was known for its significant noise levels, producing around 130 decibels during takeoff, which is comparable to a jet engine or a rock concert. Its sonic boom, when flying at supersonic speeds, could reach up to 110 decibels, causing disturbances on the ground. This high noise output ultimately contributed to restrictions on its flight paths over populated areas. Despite its impressive speed, the noise was a major factor in its retirement.
The Concorde was not as loud as many people think it was, because there was insulation that helped with the noise reduction in the cabin of the aircraft.
I could while landing, but the higher the aircraft the thinner the aircraft could travel faster. Also, the engines on a Concorde were extremely loud, so it flew higher so it wasn't a nuisance.
Yes. The Concorde jet is the only passenger jet that has exceeded the Sound Barrier. The speed of the flight must exceed atleast 720 miles per hour and the Concorde can almost double that. Since there is a booming noise that is loud enough to shake houses, the Concorde is only allowed to fly over the ocean. It travels from New York to Europe, or vice versa.
I have 2002 Concorde 2.7. Mine did this, no power, etc... Found that one of the injector harness had come loose. After reattaching, motor run fine.
