A rare view from inside the cockpit of a real, flying Concorde, it's a must-see for all aviation enthusiasts.
Fabulous plane, such a tragedy it all ended with that crash in 2000. Sure, it eventually flew again after various expensive safety improvements, but not for long. After 23 years, I still can't believe that this amazing aircraft was permanently brought down by a piece of metal falling onto the runway from a DC-10 taking off earlier, due to poor maintenance. RIP everyone who lost their lives in this crash.
