Whilst Concorde only resulted in a small production run and from that perspective it was not successful. I think that CJ's last post shows that the (unforseen at the time) spin offs and the subsequent success of Airbus means that in my view Concorde was not "a terrible terrible waste".

Maybe this is not the right place to ask this but I have been wondering for a while what leasons have been learnt from Concorde that could be applied to the design of a future SST? I hope it's not that one should never again be attempted!
Regards
Nick
