Why didn’t it succeed?
Concorde flights came to a screeching halt after only 27 years of operation on October 24, 2003. The reason? Excessive cost, high fares, and loud noise. On a regular flight, Concordes consumed 6,771 gallons of fuel, which quickly exceeded the profit made from the flight. In addition to that, only a total of 20 Concordes were built and no airline ordered them except for Air France and British Airways, who had to as they were state-run airlines at the time.
Oh, and a 2000 crash that killed everyone on board (109 people) and four people on the ground.
Sonic booms are a constant noise, so they would always be making a noise at max speed
They definitely don’t go supersonic on approach over land. That’s kinda why they did transatlantic flights.
So you’d still hear them even if they are 30000 feet above you?
