Supersonic

When it took its first commercial flight in January 1976, the Concorde ushered in a new era of flight. Supersonic: The Design and Lifestyle of Concorde takes a look at the life of this unique aircraft, from its development in the 1960s to its final flights in 2003. While its historic impact is mentioned, the book gives particular attention to the look and design of the aircraft, including how its interiors set the standard for luxury travel during its decades of service, illustrated by hundreds of artifacts and photographs. An interesting read for travel buffs and design aficionados alike.
