Fly with me on Concorde between London Heathrow and New York JFK in 2002. experience the check-in, taxi, take off at 250 MPH, in-flight to supersonic speed,(faster than most bullets), the service on board, steep approach and landing, (Be sure to watch the landing at 35 knots faster than subsonic aircraft)! And finally a year later towed up the Hudson on a barge to the Intrepid Museum at retirement. Note at the 7 minute mark a shadow moves quickly thru the plane- it’s a reflection of the sound wave with the plane catching up. Record Concorde New York-London was 2 hours, 52 minutes, 59 seconds!
