That was an unfortunate accident, debris on the runway. But while it was out of service, people got used to flying on normal planes. Also, it was such a high profile plane, every incident was highly newsworthy. Finally, a very large number of frequent fliers were killed at the World Trade Centre and of course there was a big down turn in general aviation afterwards. It's the end of an era, like the end of the great ocean liners.

I remember, as a school kid in the UK, watching them test Concorde in our area, occassional giving us a sonic boom. We were all very excited to watch it fly over, all the small kids would wave. Unfortunately, I never got to (or will now ever) fly on the Concorde. If the French hadn't of crashed there's it may still have remained in service. Thanks for the shots.
