I am French, and I remember the pride of the country for this invention that was Concorde. The plane taking more than a hundred passengers, the fastest in the world. But it was the most expensive too. But from Paris to New York, it seems to me that it took less than 3hoo to go, instead of 8-9h00 ... Most countries around the world wanted to know the secrets of this product, Concorde. I was 12 when this drama happened. Within three years after this regrettable accident, the cause of this accident had indeed been discovered. On the other hand, I did not quite understand the relationship between September 11 and Concorde ... In any case, thank you for this reconstruction, almost 21 years later! You are very talented!

It always was a great sight to behold. I was able to see this beautiful bird one last time, while visiting UK in April 2003. We were just in Windsor one day and a Concorde was flying overhead, getting ready to land. That was the very last time for me. Such a pity...

She had flown for 30+ years w/o any incident. Why did they not due a fod, of the airport prior to her departing. I cannot imagine what the crew/passengers were experiencing.

I've been saddened and misty eyed through several of your videos. Until today, I've never sat crying like I still am now. First saw Concorde when she made a special stop in Nashville 1988. I worked near the airport and nearly lost my job because I stayed outside watching this plane for as long as I could. I went to the airport after watching it fly over our building and got many shots with the little disposable camera I bought for the occasion. This plane is the stuff of dreams. My heart hurts for the 109 people lost in this crash. 😥

@pittmanfh 3 года назад

I remember seeing footage on TV back when this happened. Even though it was no fault of the Concorde nor any of its crew, it is impossible to get that image out of your head seeing fire shooting out the back of an aircraft at takeoff. Until now, I never knew the cause of that fire. I do recall that it was pretty much a death knell for the Concorde. That airplane was obviously packed full of some well-to-do people, considering the cost of flying on the Concorde and the fact they were all headed for a 16-day cruise across the Atlantic Ocean. Unfortunately their lives all ended quite tragically. Great job on the production!

@montebrown9528 3 года назад

SO Sad. First, I had no idea that the Concorde had been in service that long. I didn't have much recollection about this disaster. It is sad that another aircraft was the demise of the Concorde. I had always heard that it was a fuel hog and that is why it was taken out of service. The most beautiful passenger jet ever built to date. Sad to see her grounded.

There’s another theory on this accident written by Concorde pilot John Hutchinson, for any aviation enthusiasts it’s interesting and worth reading through. Great video 👍🏻

@seanpellegrino2989 3 года назад

His is the one about the plane not rotating in time due to excess weight? If his is the one I am thinking of it is a very compelling theory.

@m.harris9512 3 года назад

@@seanpellegrino2989 you’re correct, the additional weight with 19 extra unchecked luggage bags plus filling the fuel tanks to the brim, rather than the standard 80% full. There’s a few other factors too, it also states it narrowly missed a fully loaded 747 which had the French president in at the time.......

@dylvasey 3 года назад

I've worked in travel for years and my biggest regret was never taking a flight on Concorde. We used to receive 'seat sales' on undersold legs and would often see prices as low as £99 (around $120 at the time) for flying one way between London/Paris and New York or v.v. Stupidly I always thought there would be another opportunity. Because so many people caught footage of this crash, it's ingrained on me. Rest in peace to everyone who perished.

@golden.lights.twinkle2329 3 года назад

The Concorde had a long history of tyres bursting during take-off. But none of the previous occasions had caused a catastrophic incident, so no remedial action was taken.

@tomcolley9008 3 года назад

I read that if they hadn’t been overweight on takeoff then they would have rotated before they would have hit the debris and there wouldn’t have been an accident.

@theol6790 3 года назад

Yes that's right. And some professional firefighters of CDG airport also reported that they saw fumes from the tires way before the DC-10, which means that there was already a fatigue for the wheel

@Bertrand146 3 года назад

Indeed, they lost many opportunities to prevent this accident, but due to human error and multiple mistakes like your father not shutting down his engine or your mother not aborting, they sealed their fate and here you are.

@misterree1443 3 года назад

That was very respectfully done. Every catastrophe that occurs in flight is horrendous but this one has such a pointlessness to it as it was a single piece of metal that brought Concorde down and there was zero hope for anyone aboard. A single piece of metal you could probably hold in one hand. That combined with the photos fills you with hopelessness. Extremely tragic loss of life.

Extremely expensive for the companies. Pilots got paid a million dollar per year, passenger paid about 10k, crew members also making about 200k a year and a special very expensive fuel, taxes, tarmac fees etc plus maintenance etc made it very hard to keep it up. It is like having a Rolls-Royce as uber for short trips.

Probably and I feel Elon Musk may be interested in an improved version of it. We have so many billionaires right now, who would love such a luxury. The rest of us would still fly other airplanes, providing Biden does not prohibit people from flying, if they refuse these fake vaccines. I can see that one coming.......Slavery is around the corner as our Constitution is getting seriously eroded.

I dont want to be "that guy" but I was in my final year at university when this was being investigated and with BEA had access to all the data. This channel is simply amazing, but at the end of the flight for 4590, the nose rose sharply and it crashed into the hotel tail first. I've seen dozens of reenactments of this but never one that got it spot on yet...

@bogdan_n 3 года назад

You might be right, as usually a plane with this shape goes into a flat spin or tail first dive when stalling, but most likely, as the control surfaces and a large area of the lift producing surface on the left side disintegrated in the fire, at the moment of impact the plane had the aerodynamics of a piano.

The Concorde was pure beauty and magnificence. It is truly such a shame that it flies no more. Flight 4590 had a horrific and heartbreaking ending before the journey had even begun. I'm certain those pilots tried everything possible to save that plane and the lives of everyone entrusted into their care that day. May those who lost their lives that day not be forgotten.
