    Dear friends and followers welcome back to this third and final episode of my Concorde documentary.
    Within the first part of the video, IΒ΄ll be explaining the approach and landing part of Concorde, flying a standard ILS approach into New York John F. Kennedy airport. YouΒ΄ll see some great footage from the inside of the cockpit during approach and landing and I`ll mention some interesting facts about the different procedure until Concorde is fully established on the ILS. Approach speeds, pitch attitude, when to extend the landing gear and how to deal with the famous Concorde nose.
    Later in the video, IΒ΄ll be going over some mind-blowing facts which made Concorde so special and different from other airliners. Did you know, Concorde had no flaps or speed brakes/ground spoilers? Or as you extended the gear, the call out was "Gear down, four green"! Why four? YouΒ΄ll see in the video!
    And finally who flew with Concorde, and why the British public was so proud to be a part of Concorde? YouΒ΄ll even see a short clip of a formation flight with the famous Royal Airforce - Red Arrows.
    And my final words about how I feel about Concorde and the future of supersonic flight.
    Thank you very much for your support throughout this video series. Also a huge thank you to Brooklands museum near London, for making this video possible. By the way, all the earnings of the three part series will be donated to the volunteers working at Brooklands museum, as they were so incredibly helpful during my time with Concorde "DELTA GOLF".
    Thanks for watching, all the best your "Captain" Joe

    I visited Galeao airport's control tower in Rio a few times during Concorde arrivals. The crew would never call by Air rance's flight number. Instead, they'd say, "Galeao tower, this is _le Concorde."_ The flight controllers always grinned, then gave clearances by flight number, and the crew would then acknowledge back: "Roger, _le Concorde_ cleared to land, runway xyz". This goes to show how proud they were of the machine they were flying.

    As a Yankee, I wish to say that we hugely admire our Brit friends for their pioneering work! Their painful experience and diligence with the Comet made the Boeing 707 possible. Their pioneering work with aircraft carriers years before made ours possible, and they taught us how to land our own F4U Corsair on a carrier, making it viable for flat top use. Their Merlin engine made our P-51 possible, not to mention their jet engine pioneering. And let no one forget the magnificent de Havilland DH.98 Mosquito-the Wooden Wonder/Timber terror, the magisterial Merlin-powered Avro Lancaster and Griffon-powered Supermarine Spitfire. We reflect with respect on our British cousins.

      As a Brit, I’d like to say we’re all in this together. You guys, with the help of German rocket scientists created the Saturn V rocket that got man to the moon, later you built the beautiful space shuttle (my favourite vehicle of all time). As a kid I was also a big fan of the Lockheed SR-71 and the B2 bomber, those planes fascinated me. Together we can achieve great things.

    Brilliant work Joe. I knew most of the technical facts already but what you do that is so amazing is reveal very interesting, little-known facts (like the one about JFK ATC letting Concorde jump the queue) that we can't learn about from anywhere else, thank you! As a suggestion for another historical aircraft, I would suggest the SR-71 Blackbird or the B2 Bomber, but if it's only commercial aircraft how about the TU-144?

    We used to live just north of Bath, England, and would see and hear this graceful aircraft as it passed high above our home in the early evening on its way to New York. She was so fast that we quickly learned to look well ahead of the sound of the engines to see her. Never anything less than thrilling! Thanks for these three films. πŸ‘

      I second that ! It is an airplane that made a revolution in the industry. And it still flies, even in passenger service. It's the most produced airliner, even if most of them not produced for airline service. It's so sturdy and easy and cheap to operate that some still fly commercially in regular passenger and cargo service, an unique feature for a 70 year old plane.
      Furthermore, Basler aviation reconverts 70 year old airframes to turboprop, and rebuilds them so that these old handmade airframes are rated as "new"!
      Think about that. Any other plane in commercial passenger service is scrapped after 30 Years, when this one can be rebuilt as new after 70 Years.
      It's simply unique.

      Third. DC-3 is arguably the most historically important airliner ever. Plus, it fought against the evil Nazis in World War II. And its such a good plane that its still in service today!
      When I went to Florida and visited an aviation museum, there was a C-47 on display (military DC-3 from WWII), and it had D-Day invasion stripes. It turns out that it did participate in D-Day! But more impressively (and less surprising), I noticed it was being serviced... It was still airworthy and scheduled to fly the following week! Pretty cool!

    I had a team member who originally worked at Heathrow as an Engineer on the Concorde. On the day Concorde landed last at Heathrow i arranged that we had to go onsite to a customer. We were just passing the airport when she came in in all her beauty. A sight one never forgets. I also won't forget the look on my team members face, we both had almost tears in our eyes. And when i resigned he came to me and thanked me again for arranging that trip to the customer passing Heathrow at exactly the right time. 2 weeks later i had him back in a job interview at my new employer and he signed the dotted line instantly. So yes, Concorde did build bridges and it did connect people.

      No, the Russian design looked nothing like Concorde. It had different engine placement and arguably better handling.
      Unfortunately, it was hampered by the fact that the USSR couldn't produce compact and powerful enough engines, so they had to scale them up. And this in turn caused all kinds of issues that were never solved.

      @binaway 4 λ…„ μ „ +1

      @@AlexBesogonov The TU144 was a political program that had to beat the West. Corners cut and it was rushed into the air and service before it was ready. The original prototype was so different to the actual aircraft that entered service it could be said their were two 144's. To save time they did use technology obtained by spies. As the Tu144 program proceeded the more Concorde like it became. Engine placement was changed. On the original prototype all engines were located between the landing gear. The engine noise in the passenger cabin was almost unbearable and also caused other problems. On the redesign they were positioned either side of the landing on each wing. Due to the length of the air inlets it was not possible to move them further out (as per Concorde). There was a proposal to mount them vertically (one atop the other) which would have allowed all 4 to be outside the landing gear but this near proceeded.
