Historical Background:
The Concorde was a Franco-British supersonic passenger airliner developed in the 1960s and 1970s. It made its first test flights in the late 1960s and entered commercial service in the 1970s. Capable of cruising at about Mach 2, Concorde provided fast transatlantic crossings and became a symbol of technological achievement and prestige for operators such as Air France and British Airways. Its retirement in the early 2000s closed a remarkable chapter in aviation history, but Concorde remains an enduring icon.
