The Aérospatiale-BAC Concorde, or Concorde for short, is a supersonic passenger aircraft that was operated from 1976 to 2003. She has often been referred to in the press as the "Queen of the Skies". The flight time on their most important routes across the Atlantic between Paris or London and New York was around 3 to 3.5 hours, around half that of modern subsonic aircraft, and the flight altitude was up to 18 km. The operators were British Airways and Air France.
