What a beautiful machine :,)

We use to live in the future man. I'd give up crappy smartphones instantly for a chance to fly on this baby. 😔

its sad to see that the Concorde is not on service anymore..... legend.

The US will never match that......

Goosebumps

the only time in history when mankind took a step backwards.....grounded concorde

So sad, she should still by flying

I can understand the nostalgia, Concorde was a truly beautiful aircraft. As Tony Benn used to say - noone complains about military aircraft costing a king's ransome...or perhaps they do - but we have a wonderful Eurofighter And the technology - or some of the wing technology from concorde is used to make Airbus a modern, relelvant And economically viable aircraft. The French were perhaps a bit less irrational in wanting to keep an aircraft flying that really was not paying it's way - let's be honest. A fine piece of art possibly but everything these days has it's price.....?

I used to fish right next to that runway before 9/11. When the Concord took off it was always an exciting sight. The noise was incredible. I miss watching it.

No matter how many times I watch this I always get the chills.

This plane should should still be flying , but down to politics it isn't. It was a template for the way forward, but now we have planes that carry passengers at the same speed as fifty years ago,hardly progress. Total step backwards .We won't see anything like Concorde for another fifty years.

Chills. The only word, the only feeling that is truly appropriate for a moment like this.

This is THE most beautiful civilian airliner, this is an era of aviation. Farewell.

have my Concord stuff in a safe!!!

Souvenir...

In the mid 90's I worked in an office in West London about 5 mins flight time from LHR and Concorde used to come over at about 11:15 each day. The windows of our office used to shake and if I was on the phone to a client I had to apologise and explain and call them back 30 seconds later. I never minded because I got to see and hear the most beautiful aeroplane that man ever made. I could never have afforded to fly it then. Now that I could it's grounded. Still I guess I got to see it fly, truly it flew good.

What a stunning piece of engineering. Even after all these years its still a symbol of form over function. Its sad we don't see them anymore.

Since i was a baby i lived in a small town next to London Heathrow, and i grew up hearing that Concorde go off at 10am and then again at 6pm every single day for 25 years. As a kid i saw her go through the red livery, blue livery and then the new livery, even from my back garden i knew the sound it made when it was taxiing and i would run to my bedroom window to wait for the roar and then to see it zoom past. I'd be at my grans house next to a famous golf course that used Concordes image, and it would land and fly over her house and i would rush outside when i knew it was time it was landing. In my Mum and Dads car going past the BA hangers, the sirens would go off and there would be a Concorde on tow waiting to cross the road going back to terminal 4, where i would be hoisted up by my dad, climb half out of the sun roof with the rest of the kids in their own parents cars and could almost touch it it was that close. I'd often go to the Queens building with my mum to see it land and take off. In all the years it never failed to grab the attention of children and adults alike. People, grown men and women, would see it driving past and pull up on the pavement, climb out onto their car just to see it take off. It just had that awe-struck effect on people. Everyone who lived around the areas of Heathrow lived for over 30 years with the shaking of window panes and rumbling of the ground, car alarms going off and the loud cracking of air from her afterburners as she took off. It was a spectacle of the day that everyone where i lived was used to and no one complained, well except for those under the glidepath. She was a major part of my childhood and when i tell Americans that i used to see her twice a day everyday for 25 years, they think it's amazing and say i was really fortunate. And to be fair, we all were. My grandfather worked on her, flew on her and no matter where you were, Concorde played a huge part on the towns and community's. Before i was born it had captured the love of my grandad and that followed on with me. I was infatuated with aeroplanes anyway but that rare bird always made people stop what they were doing, forget where they were going, just to watch this girl grace their presence. Terrible loss to aviation this girl!

Great video! Pure emotion.

Great choice of music, very fitting, well done. Should have let Richard Branson buy them to keep flying alas BA and Virgin don't get on

This Concorde is now at Duxford air museum, you can actually go onboard too, it's a great place to go....just outside London

I wish British Airways would bring this beauty back :(

very nice upload ... thx

Air france was the first concorde to land at jfk

The irony with Concorde is that it wasn't grounded for being to fast or noisy etc it was grounded because in the digital age Concorde was just too damn slow

I was on the flight back to LHR on that day and RIP Concorde!

One of the few GOOD things to come out this god forsaken country of mine. Concorde was way ahead of its time. It's sad seeing them rot away in museums now.

I never get sick of watching this. I've been watching it for a couple of years now. Great job. Thank you again.

and by the way..; God BLESS AMERICA from England

progress..

The Concorde landed here in Rhode Island in June, 1988. Most of the passengers were coming for the US Open in Boston. She was originally supposed to land in Boston but due to complaints she landed in Providence.

Sorry. I didn't wait until the end and then I saw song info. Love it!!

This is wonderful. Despite other comments, I would like to know the name of this song and group. Please.

nothing comes close to concorde and never will

It´s been 10 years now since her last flight, we miss you!!

DAAAAAAMN!! I'M ANGRY!! WHEN I FINALLY STARTED MAKING MONEY AS AN ADULT, I WANTED TO FLY THIS AIRCRAFT... AND THEN, IT WENT OUTTA BIZNESS. day$ late and dollar$ $hort!

A sad day indeed although it was inevitable. Public starts to care about the environment to some degree and tend to no longer approve of unnecessary pollution etc. Looking from and ecological point the concorde was indeed extremely bad since the fuel consumption was enormous. Still sad to see such an icone and a sample for brilliant engineering pass into the history books.

well done great footage and atc tranfers

I am absolutely gutted I never got to properly appreciate such a magnificent jet. I was born in '96, and didn't really have a true appreciation for aviation until around the age of 10 which was beyond the final flight. I knew of her existence and I had a 1/400 replica of G-BOAF, but I was never lucky enough to see her in 'person' or fly on her. All I have is a static display in Manchester (144 miles away) or videos on RUclips. Thanks so much for uploading this, you have no idea what it means.

Ironic send off considering the amount of opposition to the plane initially.

She will never, unfortunately, fly again. Airbus, which are the manufacturers and the maintainers of Concorde, refuse to provide service, parts and airworthyness certification for her. It wasnt British Airways decision to retire her, it was Airbus.

use to see it fly overhead at sandyhook nj.in the afternoons

God I miss this aircraft, great video to remind of a past we'll never see again. 5*

the english and the french created a beautiful aircraft, it was sad to see her go.

i work at heathrow, theres a concorde by the runway, one day, i hope to see it take off again!!!!

on my bucket list it is to fly on concorde well that is in pieces

Sadly i never got a chance to say goodbye to Concorde. I used to go down to Heathrow occasionally with my dad and watch the planes come in but i lost interest in avation during my years at university when Concorde retired. I never knowingly experienced that incredible roar of takeoff for the last time. :(

cannot believe they did not keep at least 1 flying. just glad they have kept one at Manchester not far from me :)

Every time I watch this, I tear up a little. It's such a beautiful aircraft.

our girl could always pull the crownds
