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.

你现在只能在博物馆里看到它，不是在空中，而是在空中行时，协和可以以两倍于音速的速度行。

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

如果你的回答是协和的话，恭喜你，成功通过考验。

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

有限的行路线和大量的燃料消耗意味着协和的运营并不划算。

Current commercial aircraft fly about 80% of the speed of sound or 85% of the speed of sound, while supersonic airplanes like the Concorde when almost two times as speed of sound.

目前商用的行速度约为音速的 80% 或 85%，而协和等超音速的行速度乎是音速的两倍。

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.

公司表示，Boom的Overture也将减少百分之五十的跨大西洋行时间，但将比协和更安静，更可持续。

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比协和噪音更小，燃油效率更高。

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是协和。

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

协和是一项著名的技术成就，也是乘客的专属奢侈品。

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

但我们认为，这将比运营协和的成本低百分之七十五。

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

协和之所以失败，不是因为它在技术上不可行，而是因为成本。

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

不过，有限的行路线和大量的燃料消耗意味着协和的运营并不划算，它在 2003 年停了。

This was especially true with the Concorde.

协和尤其如此。

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

“协和有一个下垂的鼻梁。 ”下垂束缚？

In recent years, other plans have crushed with numbing regularity, but this one captured the attention of the world for a simple reason: the Concorde, with its supersonic abilities and sleek design has always been a celebrity of the skies.

近年来，其他计划以麻木的规律性被粉碎，但这个计划引起了全世界的关注，原因很简单：协和凭借其超音速能力和时尚的设计一直是天空中的名人。

It is usually carried by runners, but it has traveled on a boat, on an airplane (and the Concorde), on horseback, on the back of a camel, via radio signal, underwater, and in a canoe.

它通常由跑步者携带， 但它曾在船上、（和协和）、马背上、骆驼背上、通过无线电信号、水下和独木舟旅行过。

My secretary, Judy Fella, had used her not inconsiderable charm to persuade British Airways to give herself and me free seats on a Concorde as a publicity venture.

我的秘书朱迪·费拉 (Judy Fella) 曾利用她不可忽视的魅力说服英国航空公司 (British Airways) 为她和我提供协和的免费座位作为宣传活动。

" The Concorde is no more! " " Concorde will never take to the skies again" These planes stopped flying and we never  made any more like them.

“协和永远不会再上天空” 这些停止行， 我们再也没有制造过类似的。

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

难以置信你坐过协和。

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

以及法航协和如何卷入航空史上最接近记录的失误。

According to the Air Force spokesman, when the Concorde was already 70 miles out over the Atlantic, on a scheduled flight to Paris from Dulles International Airport, Washington, four US Air Force F-15s approached at speed from the left.

据空军发言人称，当协和已经从华盛顿杜勒斯国际场往巴黎的定期航班上空越大西洋 70 英里时，4 架国空军 F-15 战斗从左侧速接近。
