The picture shown, supersonic jet passenger, Air France Concorde last flight ever back in May 2003. This photo taken at John F. Kennedy Airport in New York while Concorde touched down runway. It flew from Paris, and just took less than 4 hours to conduct transatlantic flight, what a fast travel.
The Concorde manufactured by BAC now known as British Aerospace (BAe and BAe Systems). It was long way development since last 1950s and first flight was in 1969, then it introduced publicly in 1976. The primary operator of supersonic jet were British Airways and Air France, there were only 20 Concordes built at that time. The main reason of its retirement was Concorde's service life, expensive operating cost so it no longer became profitable. Soon after retirement, an auction of Concorde parts was held in Paris. Another Air France's Concorde retired to the Musée de l'Air at Paris-Le Bourget Airport and displayed at Auto & Technik Museum Sinsheim in Germany also Air France donated the third Concorde to National Air and Space Museum in Washington, USA.
