Definition
A retired supersonic passenger aircraft jointly developed by Britain and France. Known for its distinctive delta wing design and ability to fly at twice the speed of sound.
Etymology
From French 'concorde' meaning agreement or harmony, chosen to symbolize the collaboration between Britain and France. The word derives from Latin 'concordia' (harmony), from 'con-' (together) + 'cor' (heart).
Kelly Says
The Concorde represented humanity's brief conquest of supersonic civilian flight, but also showed how technological marvels can become economically unsustainable. Its name proved prophetic - it required unprecedented international concord to build, but that same cooperation couldn't make it profitable.
