The Concorde performed its maiden voyage made on March 2, 1969. It achieved a maximum cruising speed of Mach 2 or 1,534 mph (2,469 kph), faster than the Earth spinning on its axis (roughly 1,000 mph).

Concorde and the Tupolev Tu-144 cruised at Mach 2 at 60,000 feet, where their indicated airspeed was only 380 knots, but the friction of air heated their noses to 260 degrees Fahrenheit.

Supersonic commercial flights were once the fastest way to fly, but Concorde jets have been out of service for more than two decades now. What happened?

The footage shows that flying in a Concorde was, in some ways, a luxury experience—which makes sense, given that roundtrip tickets could cost $10,000 in the 1990s not adjusting for inflation.
