Somebody once filmed Concorde using afterburners while leaving Heathrow Airport in London.
It’s truly a sight to behold.
Partly because afterburners are always cool, but mostly because even now, over 20 years after it was retired, we still miss this magnificent supersonic aircraft.
Check it out in the amazing clip above, courtesy of Webflite.
