While the DC-8 typically rotated in the 150-160-knot range, Concorde often delayed rotation until roughly 220 knots due to its slender delta wing design. Despite the higher Vr, Concorde still achieved airborne status first thanks to its exceptionally high thrust-to-weight ratio and the Rolls-Royce/Snema Olympus 593 turbojets, which delivered...

The Concorde iconic droop nose was designed to lower during taxi, takeoff, and landing, the movable nose gave pilots the forward visibility they needed. Once airborne, it raised into its streamlined position to reduce drag and maximize aerodynamic efficiency at supersonic speeds. 📹: Gerald N

Britain's Fairey Delta 2 first hit Mach 1.73 and shattered the world airspeed record on March 10, 1956. The sleek delta-wing research jet, powered by a Rolls-Royce Avon with afterburner, became the first to exceed 1,000 mph in level flight at 1,132 mph—smashing the previous mark by 310 mph. Oh, and also, its droop-nose, designed for better visibility, later inspired Concorde, and only two were built after the maiden flight in October 1954.

Concorde burned nearly 50% of its fuel just to reach Mach 2. Afterburners consumed ~32.5 L/sec during takeoff and acceleration, before dropping at cruise. Could modern Rolls-Royce engineers do better today?

Launched in 2016, it’s designed to deliver 33–40 metric tons of thrust and incorporates cutting-edge materials and scaled-up technology from the PD-14 engine. Key Specs: •Thrust: ~35,000 kgf (77,000 lbf) •Fan diameter: 3.1 m •Weight: ~9,840 kg •Bypass ratio: 10.6 •Advanced ceramics used for high heat resistance Major testing milestones, like bench tests of the gas generator, have been achieved despite sanctions and funding hurdles. The program aims for completion around 2029, with plans to expand the engine family in the future.

The NTSB later found that the N110AA DC-10 disaster began weeks before the AA191 crash during a maintenance procedure at American Airlines’ Tulsa facility. McDonnell Douglas recommended removing the engine and pylon separately, but American, Continental, and United used a faster shortcut by removing them together to save time and labor hours. During maintenance on Flight 191’s aircraft, a slight forklift misalignment jammed the pylon against the wing, creating a small structural crack that went unnoticed. Over the next 8 weeks, the crack grew with every flight cycle until the pylon finally failed during takeoff rotation, causing the entire engine to tear away from the wing. Fleet inspections afterward found similar damage on other DC-10s as well.

This video shows an extraordinary coincidence in aviation history..... One of the Concorde's final flights was captured unintentionally, without planning or ceremony - just a camera in the right place at the right time. As the supersonic jet passes through the frame, it represents the closing chapter of an era when commercial air travel briefly defied the limits of speed. Today, Concorde exists only in museums and memories, making moments like this even more powerful. When Concorde made its first commercial departure from Heathrow on January 21, 1976, it was a moment that captured global imagination. Born of Anglo-French collaboration, the sleek white jet embodied not only technical genius but also a shared vision of progress in an era still buzzing with the optimism of the Space Age. Its distinctive droop-nose design, developed to aid visibility during takeoff and landing, became an icon in itself, while its ability to soar at 60,000 feet allowed passengers to glimpse the curvature of the Earth. This blend of aesthetics and performance made Concorde unlike any other aircraft of its time. The Concorde, a supersonic passenger jet that was a joint Anglo-French project. It was renowned for being the first passenger plane to fly faster than the speed of sound, reaching speeds of Mach 2.04 (over twice the speed of sound). Concorde significantly reduced transatlantic flight times, making the journey between London/Paris and New York possible in about three hours. It was in service from 1976 to 2003, primarily flying routes between London, Paris, New York, and Barbados. Developed through a collaboration between British Aerospace and Aérospatiale for the airframe, and Rolls-Royce and SNECMA for engines, Concorde was considered a technological masterpiece. After a fatal crash in 2000 and declining passenger numbers, the remaining planes ceased flights in 2003. The drama of takeoff was unforgettable. Heathrow’s runways would tremble under the roar of its Olympus 593 turbojet engines, a sound so powerful it echoed across West London. Residents and aviation enthusiasts alike would pause to watch the jet thunder down the runway, trailing a streak of heat and sound before lifting sharply into the sky. For the privileged few onboard, the experience was no less thrilling—menus boasted fine wines and gourmet cuisine, while the cabin hummed with the quiet exclusivity of royalty, business magnates, and celebrities en route to New York or Paris in less than half the usual time. Though Concorde’s era ended in October 2003, its legacy remains deeply tied to Heathrow. For nearly three decades, it was both a marvel and a symbol of human ingenuity, demonstrating what was possible when engineering ambition met cultural aspiration. Today, preserved Concorde aircraft at museums around the world remind visitors of an age when the boundaries of speed and style were pushed to new horizons, and every takeoff from Heathrow carried with it the promise of the extraordinary. © Reddit #archaeohistories

Concorde burned nearly 50% of its total fuel load between pushback and reaching Mach 2. Afterburners were used for takeoff and transonic acceleration, consuming about 32.5 liters per second. Once established at cruise, fuel flow dropped to 25,629 litres per hour (as quoted by BA in their historical review of Concorde operations). Could modern Rolls-Royce engineers do better today?

🚨People watching this think it looks fake… It isn’t. That is a real F-22 Raptor performing an unrestricted climb. This maneuver is something only a handful of aircraft on Earth can do. When the pilot rotates and goes straight up like that, the aircraft is converting pure engine thrust into vertical climb. The reason it can do it comes down to the engines. The F-22 is powered by two Pratt & Whitney F119-PW-100 turbofan engines. Each engine produces about 35,000 pounds of thrust with afterburner. Combined thrust: About 70,000 pounds. Now compare that to the aircraft’s weight. Typical combat weight: ≈ 64,000 pounds That means the Raptor has a thrust-to-weight ratio greater than 1:1. In simple terms… The engines produce more thrust than the aircraft weighs. That allows the jet to accelerate vertically. And it gets even crazier. The engines use two-dimensional thrust-vectoring nozzles, allowing the exhaust to tilt up and down to maintain control even when airflow over the wings is minimal. Top speed ≈ Mach 2.25 (about 1,700 mph) Supercruise ≈ Mach 1.5 without afterburners Service ceiling ≈ 65,000 feet Only about 183 operational F-22s were ever built. Which means when you see a Raptor do this climb… You’re watching one of the most advanced air-dominance fighters ever created. #SilentMajoritySpeaks #AStoneGroove
