Concorde and super sonic travel (Amy Aviation's UK Tour )

In this video from Fun Kids, we explore the rich aviation history of Filton in Bristol, located in the southwest of the UK. Filton is renowned for its significant contributions to the field of aeronautics, beginning over a century ago with the production of the Bristol fighter plane, a key component in defending the skies during the First World War. The area also played a pivotal role during the early years of World War II, crafting aircraft like the Blenheim for the Royal Air Force. These historical achievements set the stage for Filton's later ventures into helicopter and satellite manufacturing. One of Filton's most renowned achievements is its role in the development and assembly of Concorde, the iconic supersonic passenger jet that was a collaborative effort between Britain and France. Launched in the 1970s, Concorde could reach supersonic speeds, enabling travel between London and New York in merely two and a half hours at speeds of 1,300 miles an hour. Out of the 20 Concordes built, only 14 were ever used commercially. Despite its small cabin, which accommodated 120 passengers, Concorde remains a marvel of its time and a staple in aviation history, with several aircraft preserved at airfields, including in Filton. Although Concorde no longer flies today, the era of supersonic travel isn't considered over. With ongoing advancements in materials and aerodynamics, several companies are revisiting the idea of supersonic passenger planes. The potential resurgence of supersonic travel is on the horizon, and we could see a new generation of supersonic jets within a decade. This glimmer of the future in aeronautics shows the ever-evolving nature of aviation technology.
