Oh,.. 'Now' I understand the new policy,..

The Bigger the plane, the Bigger we can wright our name down the side of it,.. ;) :D

After all, when your travaling at M:2 i don't supose it's easy to read whos plane it is,....

Easy on the concorde bashing,...

Did u know that America was building one also, and was planed to be 'faster' than concorde.

but after haveing spent just as much as britan and france, all they had was a wooden scale model..

but if america 'HAD' built it's own super sonic passenger fleet, then it would be praised... but becuase America failed to do so, all that was left for people to say is,.. "Oh!, stupid idea"...

But if that realy was the case, and realy 'WAS' a stupid idea, why then did america bother trying to build one of her own in the first place?

Concorde was the future,..
Because if you can't succeed with a super sonic passenge jet,
Then How in the world will the 'Next grate idea witch is "Sub-orbitel flight" , ever stand a chance of becoming a reality.

Concorde was around for a good many years,...

but the 'TWO' main reasons for it's retirement to the history books, is

ONE: 9/11,.., a lot of the people who were on them planes and also in the twin towers were concordes 'Life-Blood',..

And thoughts few rich busness people were either flying on concorde them selfs, and when they wern't, they were paying for others in their company and their friends and family to fly on them also,...

Concorde was for rich busness men, and so called 'rich-kids', and also 'once-in-a-lifetime' users who had saved and saved for there never again experence.

But all theres things start out that way,.. being something for thefew and 'privalidged'...

just like the car was, and the T.V, and it's surly the everything else.

The 'jumbo jet' was origonaly supose to be 'Spacos' and have all the bells and whisesle that ritcherd branston now wants on his proposed new plane's,... But the jumbo was soon filled out with lots and lots of sheat to be geared towards more passanger numbers and grater 'profit'...

so this plan for new 'bigger' plain's is only a re invention of the 'Last big plain'.

and the SECONED reson why concored was decomisiond:

ritchered branston wanted to buy the concorde fleet of BA(British Airways) but they said 'NO'.... ans why did they say NO,...

because there is BAD BLOOD between them,... richerd branston snitced on BA for doing something witch i don't actualy know what it was, but basicly BA got ended up getting there hand slaped for it, and ever since BA and VIRGIN have not realy been 'Friend's'...

just like when they didn't alow Ritcherd Branston to take over the LOTTERY,.. Simply because someone at the top didn't like him, even though he was going to turn the LOTERY in to a 'no-profit' making organisation,...

me thinks the 'NON-PROFIT' part was the reason.
And Me 'also' thinks that it meant 'somebody-somewhere' wasn't going to get there share of the procedings if Ritchered Branston took it over.
