I have often wondered about depressurisation in Concorde.
Above 40,000ft involves pressure breathing if no pressure suit.
Was there a provision for flight deck crew to pressure breath in event of explosive decompression?
It was speculated in my av med course that Concorde was designed in a way that "explosive" decompression was not taken into account but we had no real idea or information.
