Concorde wasnt a franco-british programm?
>>59874744
not seeing a problem there
>>59875201
Meh come on, french mainly did the thing.
They can't even produce their own jetd.
>>59872996
As you already know, it was engineered by France and the UK.
>>59873454
This
It was DC-10 which "lost" some metal bracket and concorde just drove over it and it went flying up into one of the gas tanks and that was all it took. THANKS AMERICANS FOR KILLING FASTER THAN SOUND FLIGHT FOR CONSUMER MARKET
>>59875303
Bravo estonia.
why is this shit still banned
you faggots
i don't see them banning 747s from the numerous times it crashed

>>59872996
It was another sabotage by the CIA to ruin french economy and keep us USA-dependant.
They asked their agents to left some shit on the take-off path
>>59875343
Wasn't it because it was too expensive to run?
>>59875508
Too fucking expensive*
>>59875343
It isnt banned but when it crashed airlines that operated it pulled them off and for some FUCKING REASON everyone one was scared to fly in concorde anymore so they were scrapped
also it was old as fuck tech
>>59875526
Corncorde was extremely expensive to build, fuel, and maintain. Nobody was making much money off of it.
>>59874744
what's wrong with that
>>59875489

I must admit that you have an important part in aviation engines, for Airbus too.

>>59875558
It literally wasn't allowed to fly over populated areas because of the sound it made.
FFS you stupid yuroniggers go actually learn what concorde actually was like. Literally nothing good came from this dogshit excuse for an engineering project.
>>59875576
That's true. Otherwise after the crash it appeared thar tires weren't exactly how they had to be. So the whole remplacement was an obvious reason to stop the thing.

because you buy missiles from us and you have no space program

>and you have no space program
We've got a pretty big and world class satellite industry and build a lot of stuff for the European space agency.
>>59875991
That's actually the first one, we have to deal with new features everyday.
You know, a pressurized nuclear reactor isn't a bicycle, and this one will be thé most reliable and securised in the world.
>>59875990
Even the missiles we buy from you get altered here.
And we do have a space program, albeit it's very new, we've never bothered with space but in the last 10 years of actually bothering with space.

Basically the same here with what EDF are trying to do.

That's exactly the reason why the reactor will be the most securised in the world.
There are a lot of eyes on it.
You just can't compare with russians, japanese or americans stuff which are litteraly third world tier.
Here the CEA is looking for the least detail and that's why it seems a little chaotic, they don't want bad ad for the french nuclear industry, which is the strongest in the world.
>>59876173
Yes that's the ESA budget, though the ESA still get the UK Space Agency to build lots of stuff which was what the original post was about.

I don't know if the winner of the bid has been announced yet?
Thanks for letting us use your tech tho, saved us a lot of money.
>>59875343
It's not banned. It's just not worth it compared to planes which can carry tripple the passengers while using half the kerosine.
>>59875508
This is true.
When I was younger I lived in the city with the largest military airbase in Brazil, I've seen glass break due to the sonic boom more than once.
>>59876399
Just like India, in fact.
ESA provides 50% of the commercial launchs in the world which makes it the first launcher.
Thanks mainlyto french and germans.
What would youdo with your launchpad ?
>HURR DURR WE can has Rockets too
?
That sounds quite retarded tho, launchpads are often placed near the equator line. It seems weird, in scotland.
>>59876604
It only went super sonic over the ocean for Trans-Atlantic routes and on Europe to Australia via Singapore, it only went supersonic over low density areas. Plus it cruised at 60,000 feet, so it's not like it constantly burst windows
>>59876716
Not him, but I think the idea of a Scottish launch pad is for Polar orbits

I never mentioned rockets, and you're missing the point I'm making in that the UK punches well above its weight and produces many quality shit for the ESA.
>>59876772
But even from guiana you can launch for polar orbits. There are two possibilities, unlike cap canaveral or Baïkonour.

ah, yes, nothing wrong. I mean, who needs watertight compartments on a ship anyway ?
>>59886965
jej
>>59886965
Titanic did have watertight compartments, they just couldn't resist water pressure and breached
>>59887170
so they weren't watertight then
>>59887170
They had a massive conception flaw preventing them from being properly watertight.
The fact that at some point the water level got above the said compartments didn't really help
