This TV documentary brought us on board one of Concorde's final flights to experience the thrill of supersonic travel. Over twice the speed of sound at Mach 2.04, but for its limited 92-128 max. passenger seats, its extremely expensive round-trip ticket price, for instance, from New York to London was $7,995; equals $125,000.00 in 2018 dollars, more than 30 times the cost of the cheapest option to fly this route in 1997, Concorde was doomed, entered service in 1976 and retired in 2003.
