- 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!

This guy vlogging in 2002. He saw the future
It's crazy how every video from the 2000's now looks like it was filmed in the 80's
Seeing the 747s everywhere and the Concorde... this really was the golden age of commercial aviation.
Wow! I really enjoyed watching this.
My aunt got to fly the Concorde, just by chance. She volunteered to give up her seat for someone on her Air France flight (Paris to NYC) and was told she’d be put on the next flight out. When she got on the plane she thought it was a bit small, and didn’t realize she was on the Concorde till they announced they were supersonic. She made it to New York before her original flight landed.
In the 90’s I used to travel with my father on business trips with him between New York and London and we flew on Concord 3 times in one year. I feel lucky that I was able to experience it.
3 hours from London to New York just incredible
3.5 hours of flight time instead of 7 ! This was a beast and what we have today can't compare!
The ultimate social media flex. Neither Sam Chui or Casey Nesistat can top this video. Thank you for sharing it with us.
Hi there….absolutely fantastic coming across your video! I was the stewardess on her first Concorde flight in your video! I have lots of photos but not much video footage so this has brought back so many amazing memories of Concorde. Thank you for posting this …Kind regards, Anita.
3 hours 25 mins! That’s impressive.
I got goosebumps when he said we are breaking the sound barrier and flight attendant just walking like nothing. What a freaking beauty of an aircraft. They need to bring this plane back.
56,000 feet 1250 mph! That must have been spectacular. I wish I could have experienced that just once.
Just imagine Concorde taking off in St. Marteen, all the people in Maho beach will be blown out on the sea
As a spouse of a British AIrways employee, I was offered a one-time opportunity to fly on the Concorde for only $300. I jumped at the chance. Great ride. I hope technology advances to the point where planes like that are viable again.
This man deserves an award for this video. Thank you sir!
Amazing insight into this futuristic aircraft which is now part of aviations past. That landing was a hard one that surprised me. On the takeoff roll I could not stop thinking of how DC10 metal debris on the runway from the most infamous aircraft destroyed the most iconic aircraft ever made. It really feels like international flying has gone backwards once Concorde was grounded forever.
look at that "slow lumbering subsonic plane down there" XD
I wish the concorde would still be around. Not only the most fascinating aircraft there is, but also the most beautiful
Aviation took a major step back when it got rid of the Concorde. Not everyone wants to sit on a transatlantic flight for 6-8 hours.
