Concorde has a droop nose which was lowered down for landing so the pilot could see better, but raised up for flight.

Flying at supersonic speeds, the outside of Concorde could reach temperatures around 120°C whilst the outside air temperature was –56°C!

Concorde 002’s flight crew was a pilot, co-pilot, flight engineer and three flight test observers. Concorde was the world’s first, and only, supersonic passenger aircraft.

Flying at twice the speed of sound, Concorde could cross the Atlantic - from London to New York - in half the time of a standard airliner.
