The fascinating world of aviation can boast numerous different aircraft types amongst its ranks, some of which are familiar to many people and have a case for being regarded as a ‘classic’. When it comes to being labelled an ‘icon of the aviation world’, this exclusive group will only contain a handful of aircraft, but however long or short this list may be, there is one aircraft which will always be included, Concorde.

Unfortunately, after just 27 years of service, this aviation phenomenon was consigned to the pages of history. A tragic fatal accident and the withdrawal of manufacturer support signalled the end for Concorde, even though many experts felt that the completion of extensive safety modifications meant that the aircraft could have remained in service for many years to come.
