Concorde

Concorde was a French-British turbojet-powered supersonic passenger airliner, jointly developed and manufactured by Sud-Aviation (later Aérospatiale) and the British Aircraft Corporation (BAC) under an Anglo-French treaty.
Both in the UK and in France the supersonic transport (SST) concept were studied independently in the 1950s. In 1960 it became clear that the two teams found much to agree on. The development project was negotiated as an international treaty between the two countries rather than a commercial agreement between companies and included a clause, originally asked for by the UK, imposing heavy penalties for cancellation. A draft treaty was signed on 29 November 1962.
Twenty Concorde aircraft were built, six for development and fourteen for commercial service (seven British, seven French). Concorde entered service in 1976 and was operated until 2003.


Concorde 1-102

Concorde had a maximum speed over twice the speed of sound at Mach 2.04 (1,354 mph or 2,180 km/h at cruise altitude), with seating for 92 to 128 passengers.
British Airways had a Bahrain service departing from LHR on Monday, Wednesday and Friday, which was started in 1976 using Concorde G-BOAA. To extend this service, British Airways and Singapore Airlines announced their joint agreement for the thrice-weekly Concorde service between London and Singapore via Bahrain on 26 October 1977 with Concorde G-BOAD.
