The designers, pilots and passengers tell the incredible story of how the Anglo-French Concorde saw off competition from the Americans and Soviets to become the world's only supersonic airliner.

2. Triumph and Tragedy

By the early 1980s, Concorde was admired the world over. It seemed that it was loved by all, but not by the management of British Airways. They were horrified that it was losing tens of millions a year and knew that something must be done.
