Aérospatiale BAC Concorde


Aérospatiale BAC Concorde

In the early 1980s, Californian looked at procuring two supersonic Concordes for Pacific Ocean service from California to Hawaii. Thinking that speed would be a huge service advantage, concepts were drawn up and several million dollars spent on proposals to make this happen.

However, noise, short production runs, and general expenses made Californian's Supersonic service to Hawaii a short-lived idea...

...But good ideas never die...



    Beautiful!! :D

    Interesting idea, awesome execution!

    love the concorde detail at the front

    Beautiful!! :D

    This is great.

    This is great.

    this is so lovely

    nice!!

    Quite predictably, this looks brilliant on the Cord. We never got to see enough green on supersonic jets in the real world. My only niggle is that at the back, the windows fall a little and I might consider bringing the line down to follow them, this would make the line crooked but it looks crooked now because of the windows so it might be better how it is now. Great job!

    Thanks everyone!

    Ah that's something I'll have to look into for sure. Thanks for the feedback!
