To: The Magical Mischief Tour
Ok, tell what is the difference in people dying in a Concorde and dying in any other passenger Jet? They had one accident in the years that the Concorde flew but they act as if it was the deadliest plane flying.

I think they make a big deal of it because the Concorde was a prestigious symbol, like our Space Shuttles.

That still put the accident-per-model rate way over that of any commercial jet.

This particular Concorde was full of German tourists. There was a crude joke going around that the French killed more Germans in this one crash than they did in all of World War II.
