The Concorde is one of the most famous airliners in service today thanks to
the fact that it is the only one capable of cruising at supersonic speeds.
A product of cooperation between the British Aircraft Corporation and the
French Aerospatiale company, Concorde first flew in March 1969.  The first
passenger flights occurred in 1976 and today Concorde primarily operates on
transatlantic routes between New York and London or Paris, and Middle East
routes.  Concorde is powered by four afterburning Rolls Royce Olympus 593
engines and can fly at over twice the speed of sound. This 1/144th scale Revell

       Clear windshield with optional position nose - in take-off and landing
         configuration, the Concorde's nose droops to allow the pilots better
         visibility out of the cockpit. In this kit, the passenger cabin
         windows are depicted by shallow recesses in the fuselage sides.
