On 21 January 1976, Concorde didn’t just take off - it changed aviation forever ✈️ Now, 50 years after that first commercial journey from Heathrow to Bahrain, former pilots reflect on the thrill and precision of flying it. Cruising at the edge of space, twice the speed of sound - 1,350mph, a mile every two and a half seconds - Concorde moved faster than a bullet. In just over three hours, it carried passengers from London to New York, redefining the very idea of long‑haul travel. #Concorde #Brit
