The Concorde was the brainchild of a group set up by Anglo- French interests to research the viability of a super-sonic airliner and, if possible, build one. Never give blank cheques to boffins. They think possible and viable mean the same. It was a magnificent aircraft but viable,no. British Airways and Air France ordered 6 each, knowing full well there would be no re-order. It was doomed for the scrap heap from the start. It was an incredibly expensive and risky experiment that it was not a viable,cost effective means of building airliners. But they proved it could be done ,a spirit I for one have a great admiration for
