About this video

From Concorde, this round of talks leads to newer considerations for fast passenger aircraft. The contributions deal with design, technical challenges and the reduction of the supersonic bang. The recording documents the state of discussion at the time of its creation; announced projects are therefore to be understood as plans at that time.
