RE: Is Concorde fit???

I’m sorry : mistake. It ALMOST crashed on the 21 of July in 1983, when it had the same problems (two engines felt out). I informed again and i made a huge mistake. Sorry

RE: Is Concorde fit???

Keep in mind : there is not much news to tell, so the media will make news by spreading this kind of things around. I don’t know much about the concorde, but two airlines like BA ad AF can’t afford to fly with unsafe airplanes. If this happened in North-Korea or Africa, this would not suprise me, but AF has good educated pilots, maintenance of airplanes …
I don’t believe in this ##### : it’s the second time that a concorde crashes (also in 1983), which would make it an unsafe airplane? Every airplane is safe, i think (Boeing, Airbus, Tupolev, Antonov), but the only thing that matters “who keeps them fit and are the pilots good educated”.

RE: Is Concorde fit???

The concorde one of the safest airplanes? Ofcourse, they’re are only 13 of them. I think it’s not safer than f.eg a 747, but how many of them crashed? I don’t think the point is : “is the airplane fit”, ofcourse it is, but there are always some problems. Don’t forget this is a 25 year old airplane …
But if somebody asks me tomorrow if i would fly with his concorde, i wouldn’t refuse.
