A comment on What was it like to fly the Concorde. Parent comment
And it was a scale problem because the other little problems:
1-Price(>6000USD for London-NY USD is high enough for me)
2-Contamination(look at the tail of the one taking of in the article, an environmental hazard )
3-Noise
4-Poor performance, breaking the sound barrier means increment exponentially the resistance. Fuel is not "free" anymore as it was.
5-With Internet an small jet planes, not needed anymore.
