  You really have to admire Trevor’s commitment to this series… going out and actually researching facts about the aircraft he’s showcasing for the episode. It’s commendable.

  One of the coolest things about the Concorde flying from Europe to North America was that it would "arrive" before it left time-wise. The plane flew faster than the Earth rotates.

  Amazing video. So my uncle used to work for Air France for the longest time. He was one of the designers of the Concorde. Used to work joint with the UK and frequently fly back and forth. My dad got to go on it with my uncle and said leg room was non existent. Amazing plane.

  You gotta do a spitfire dude. Spitfire, flying through big cities, under bridges, landing at St. Mart’s - all of it❤️‍🔥

  The wingspan and design always has reminded me of the space shuttle.

  Actually, Concorde is the safest planes in the world.<br><br>31 years of service and only one fatal crash, literally not caused by the plane itself.<br><br>What got it decommissioned was noise complaints and the amount of fuel it burnt at subsonic speeds. At supersonic speeds it was extremely efficient. It was just too expensive to taxi and fly over terrain after noise restrictions were put in effect.

  that alarm at around <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=unAwDpZzos0&amp;t=840">14:00</a> was the overspeed alarm lol. Have to climb if you want to go faster. less dense air is less stress on the airframe

  I was having a sandwich sitting in my car many years ago when i saw this baby come into land. It was very beautiful watching it fly.

  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=unAwDpZzos0&amp;t=788">13:08</a> That moment when you hear the alarms go off and pure terror sets in and you do NOT want history to repeat itself, so you scramble to try and figure out what went wrong...<br><br>That was excellent!!
