Description The Concorde is one of the most famous airliners in service today thanks to the fact that it is the only one capable of cruising at supersonic speeds. A product of cooperation between the British Aircraft Corporation and the French Aerospatiale company, Concorde first flew in March 1969. The first passenger flights occurred in 1976 and today Concorde primarily operates on transatlantic routes between New York and London or Paris, and Middle East routes. Concorde is powered by four afterburning Rolls Royce Olympus 593 engines and can fly at over twice the speed of sound. This 1/144th scale Revell -Germany kit includes markings for British Airways and Air France - Concorde's only operators.
