The Concorde is not any more competitive and makes not enough profits.
The British Richard Branson (CEO of Virgin) could buy some planes and use Concorde in his own flying company, so we could fly again in this marvellous plane But that's not sure at all.

And I was hoping we'd get planes that would fly into space and then back down (in other words going post mach 5) sometimes soon.. haha.. aw But I suppose the economy is totally pooped around the world and people need to save money.. Heck no biggie, its still travelling, people travelled by boats that would take months of travel, I'm sure we can get used to ten hours of travel across an ocean vs months haha

But what's weird is that the 'regular' planes are built cheaper and cheaper no wonder there are so many 'smoking' situations If people got together like they did in the 'old days' as is the case with the concorde. People (a buncha countries) could build a cheaper and better then concorde solution.. but noo :/ Ah well.
