United Airlines Concorde airplane model. The Concorde was a joint engineering feat between Britain and France, resulting in the world's only scheduled passenger flights at supersonic speed. Despite flying over 25 years ago, it still represents the pinnacle of civil aviation, thanks to its incredible speed. The partnership between BAC and Aerospatiale, formed after an agreement between the two governments in 1962, was crucial in creating this masterpiece, building on designs from Sud Aviation and Bristol. These companies, known for their respective Super Caravelle and Bristol 233 designs, shared a passion for supersonic airliners and their similar configurations played a key role in the Concorde's success.
