Why didn’t it succeed?
Concorde flights came to a screeching halt after only 27 years of operation on October 24, 2003. The reason? Excessive cost, high fares, and loud noise. On a regular flight, Concordes consumed 6,771 gallons of fuel, which quickly exceeded the profit made from the flight. In addition to that, only a total of 20 Concordes were built and no airline ordered them except for Air France and British Airways, who had to as they were state-run airlines at the time.
Oh, and a 2000 crash that killed everyone on board (109 people) and four people on the ground.
Time savings in today’s economics would be completely negated by waiting two hours in line at the airport.
If you’re paying that much to fly you’re not waiting in regular security
Terrorists taking notes.
modern day terrorists can’t be bothered with such extravagant, risky and expensive methods as hijacking a plane, they prefer less complicated and cheaper ones like driving into a crowd of people or a mass shooting
Or just donate to Israel, even easier!
You mean paying taxes?
Or just spin up some minimum wage nobodies/chatbots to spread misinformation online so their own citizens do the terrorism for you
also easier to use a bomb truck, or a suicide bomber in a crowded area. plus to maximize damage, they wait til first responders come in and do it a second time.
Other than the US and Israeli military, I’m not aware of any instances of terrorists using a second strike to target medical personnel.
Still gotta arrive early, because you don’t wanna miss it due to being stuck in traffic.
FFS, you helicopter in. What are you, fucking poor?
What’s funny is that half of the time when I fly, regular security moves faster than the expensive line.
