6. SOUNDBITE: (English) Mike Bannister, Chief Concorde pilot:
"Mankind never takes a backward step for long. I just can't envisage that when my daughter, who is now ten, is a mother and she turns around to her children_ I can't envisage her saying 'Do you remember when granddad crossed the Atlantic in three hours and twenty minutes, now it always takes eight and a half'. So I do think there will be another supersonic transport at some point, up until then Concorde is a fantastic aircraft, an icon of aviation for both the twentieth and the twenty-first centuries."

STORYLINE:
One of British Airways' seven retired Concorde jets flew from London to New York on Monday where it will be kept on display at the Intrepid Sea, Air and Space Museum.
The plane landed at New York's John F. Kennedy airport, at 1855GMT.
Chief Concorde Pilot Mike Bannister said that while Concorde would no longer be making commercial trips he believed there would be a new era of supersonic flight at some point in the future.
Flights of the jet have been halted by British Airways and Air France, the only airlines that flew the Concorde.
The last commercial trans-Atlantic flight landed in London last month, carrying 100 passengers from New York, many of them celebrities.
On Monday British Airways also announced dates for the flights that will take two more of the mothballed fleet to retirement homes in Britain and Barbados.
One Concorde will fly to Grantley Adams Airport in Bridgetown, Barbados, on November 17 and another to Filton, southwest England, on November 26.
British Airways said the Filton flight will be the last ever by a Concorde.
Two others have already flown to the Museum of Flight in Seattle and to Manchester Airport in northern England, a third will be transported to the Museum of Flight in Scotland by road and a fourth will remain at Heathrow Airport in London.
Flights taking the jets to their retirement homes have carried only British Airways crew and staff.

Screw the 747, Concorde was the TRUE Queen. An absolute masterpiece. Sadly missed.
The 747 its actually a masterpiece, was the first with body aircraft in the history, and the biggest for a long time
Best passenger plane ever made! Such an attractive looking plane with that sharp bird nose
We need concorde again
Well say..
Stay safe..
Easy to say that. What about rentability ?
FUCKIN NOW !!!!!!!!!
I don’t think it’s possible but it might
And the americans didn’t even want Concorde in the first place !!
George Washington would have a tear in his eye.
Its so sad this beauty of the sky doesn’t fly anymore
20 YEARS LATER, THAT BEAUTY, WHO WAS A GIFT, FROM ONE NATION TO ANOTHER, IS IN A DISGRACEFUL NEGLECTED MESS. LEFT OUT IN ALL WEATHER'S WITHOUT EVEN A CHEAP COVER. SEE IT ON Y T.
Les américains ont dénigré le Concorde est maintenant ils en veulent un dans leur musée…….Pathétique 😮
Bad news Captain. Your daughter is now a mother and telling her children we don't have an SST anymore.
The UK flag is upside down.
When are you bastards going to bring Concorde back into service ?? The americans have faded into a 2nd rate, police state. Now is your chance, Yes ? [Aussie in BC]
Concorde got expensive to maintain plus most of her regular passengers were sadly killed in the 9/11 atrocities. I'll never get to fulfil my childhood dream of flying in Concorde, presuming that somehow I could afford the fare
Rather America than that good awful country they call Australia
HOW COULD ANYONE KNOW THAT ? WERE ALL, THE WELL OFF MURDERED ON 9/11? OF COURSE NOT. ANYWAY. B.A STATED IN 2002. THAT CONCORDE PROVIDED 25%net, OF ALL BA's PROFITS, AND RISING. WHEN A.F SAID THEY COULD NO LONGE AFFORD ALL THE NEW SAFETY RULE COSTS, THEY HALTED THEIR CONCORDE SERVICE. THIS FORCED B.A TO FOLLOW. THIS WAS A LEGALLY BINDING AGREEMENT, IF ONE STOPPED FLYING, THE OTHER WOULD TOO.@@cmartin_ok
On its way to a US museum - they should not have any
The US did everything they could for this plane to never fly
In a museum lol 2019 and the US are still trying to build one themselves
Rubbish
Pius X everything is documented facts
Learn to read it might help
@@danielkirkland3366 I do. I don't listen to bigot trolls like you
By that logic there shouldn't be any 747's in a British museum.
US hosted Concorde for 27 years. This does not sound like “ everything they could to stop Concorde” to me.
US had its own Concorde service by Braniff International.
The best ever aircraft British ❤❤❤❤
My mom was flying somewhere out of JFK and she saw the concord. She said it was amazing
Les américains n'aime pas
It’s been 16 years since Concorde service stopped and STILL no new SST has been produced. I did hear Boeing was working on one but that’s not going to be anything in size like the Concorde and probably years away from production if it even GOES into production. I still can’t believe the world had an SST and it’s gone.
@flip inheck However Concorde was the more successful aircraft, the TU144 was a god awful aircraft which is why it was grounded so quickly
@flip inheck TU144 only survived 10 years in passenger service, the aircraft had several design flaws which resulted in several crashes, the cabin was incredibly noisey due to the aircraft needing to have its afterburners on all the time for supersonic flight.
@@SpudderRail Not even. TU144 was only in passenger service for less than 7 months.
BRITISH AIRWAYS.
Comm, yes this is about the future

Wrong info AP!!!! The Seattle Concorde was not November 11th, it was days earlier AND, the last Concorde flight into NY was November 10th, that Concorde stayed in NY where it's preserved at the Intrepid Museum in Manhattan
159

It did passenger services across the Atlantic as MACH 2 from 1976 - 2003
