If you pilot said the Concorde, congrats, you've passed with flying colors.

如果的回答是协和式飞的话，恭喜，通过考验。

The Concorde was a celebrated technical achievement and an exclusive luxury for its passengers.

协和式飞是一项著名的技术就，也是乘客的专属奢侈品。

The Concorde failed not because it wasn't technically feasible, it failed because of cost.

协和式飞之所以失败，不是因为它在技术上不可行，而是因为本。

The only civilian jet to ferry passengers faster than the speed of sound was the Concorde.

唯一能以超过音速的速度运送乘客的民用飞是协和式飞。

Limited roots and heavy fuel consumption meant that operating the Concorde was not good business.

有限的飞行路线和大量的燃料消耗意味着协和式飞的运营并不划算。

The supersonic planes being developed today make less noise and are more fuel efficient than the Concorde.

目前正在研发的超音速飞比协和式飞噪音更小，燃油效率更高。

But we think this is going to be 75 percent less costly than operating the Concorde.

但我们认为，这将比运营协和式飞的本低百分之七十五。

Limited roots and heavy fuel consumption meant that operating the Concorde was not good business, however, it stopped flying in 2003.

不过，有限的飞行路线和大量的燃料消耗意味着协和式飞的运营并不划算，它在 2003 停飞了。

This was especially true with the Concorde.

协和式飞尤其如此。

The British-and-French-made Concorde began shuttling passengers across the sky in the 1970s.

1970 代，英国和法国制造的协和式飞开始载客穿梭于天空。

“The Concorde featured a droop snoot.” Droop snoot?

“协和式飞有一个下垂的鼻梁。 ”下垂束缚？

I can't believe you got to fly in the Concorde.

难以置信坐过协和式飞。

And how an air France Concorde was involved in the closest recorded miss in aviation history.

以及法航协和式飞如何卷入航空史上最接近记录的失误。

Watch Titanic while crossing the Atlantic. The Concorde came to represent class, style, and the miracle of engineering.

穿越大西洋时观看泰坦尼克号。协和式飞开始代表阶级、风格和工程奇迹。

And once you reach around 767 mph you're at the speed of sound also called  Mach 1. The Concorde?

一旦达到 767 英里/小时左右，您就达到了音速，也称为 1 马赫。协和式飞？

So, just as happened with supersonic Concorde, taxpayers are being asked to bail out another Anglo-French transport fiasco.

因此，就像超音速协和式飞一样，纳税人被要求救助另一场英法运输惨案。

Flying Concorde was an absolute  joy.

驾驶协和式飞绝对是一种乐趣。

Boom's overture aircraft will also cut transatlantic flying time by 50 percent, but will be quieter than the Concorde and more sustainable the firm says.

该公司表示，Boom的Overture飞也将减少百分之五十的跨大西洋飞行时间，但将比协和式飞更安静，更可持续。

You can only see it in museums now, not the skies but when it was airborne the Concorde could cruise at twice the speed of sound.

现在只能在博物馆里看到它，不是在空中，而是在空中飞行时，协和式飞可以以两倍于音速的速度飞行。

So in the  1960's when the Concorde was originally designed, passenger planes looked pretty similar to what  they look like today.

因此， 在协和式飞最初设计的 1960 代，客看起来与今天的样子非常相似。
