  Yes, long ago, until somebody was pissed off with the noise it made.

  A long time ago!!!
  
  they stopped using concordes when it was deemed too expensive as not many fliers would want to fly in one...I think last time air travel was some sort of taboo

  Even if everyone say ok, it still won't be flying coz some guys grounded it for life after one incident smashed its 20 year clean record.

  The Concorde was a joint venture between SIA and BA. The BA livery was painted on one side, SIA on the other side.

  i thought got concorde Fucked up and crash so COncorde was no longer used.

  Actually it was too expensive to maintain. Not the crash.
  
  There are more crash in other planes. But they are more economical to maintain.

  yup...and considering the market of flying in one?....its more economical to fly in a normal jet instead and bear with the duration difference

  would it be nice if they could come up with hybrid concord and Air Asia.
  
  Then we'll have cheap and fast way around the world.
