The Concorde was a plane ahead of its time—quite literally, as a flight from Paris or London to New York was so fast it’d actually land more than two hours before it took off: something that’s only possible today if you cross the International Date Line. The supersonic jet was supposed to usher in a new age of transportation, but just 27 years after its inaugural commercial flight—15 years ago today, in fact—the futuristic aircraft retired with no successor, and supersonic passenger travel ceased to exist.
