Concorde was the safest aircraft as it was only flown by the airline's best. 747, 737 and 777 killed a lot more ppl but they didnt get the negative press. Airbus wanted the concorde gone no matter what as the french couldnt make money on it while the british were making bank, it made the french look incompetent so it was big nono.
Also if president kennedy hadnt stopped the american airlines from buying it im sure it would still be maintained today by american enthusiasts.

Expensive, cramped and unpleasant. But the Formula 1 car of the skies. London to NY in under 3 hours. But plagued with faults and malfunctions for more than 2 decades. And this accident was one of the things that also sealed the deal that Concorde, as a business, was finished. 9000 dollars per ticket and at that time... Guess what you would have to pay today for a 3h ticket. No matter what airplane you can construct, that is capable of that speed or beyond, that is insane prices. Even the Soviet Russians knew it with their Tupolev Tu-144.
Both a marvel and a curse of the Atomic Space Age. For both sides.

Thank you for sharing and rip to the victims of what once was.


Thank you.
