EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a historic moment in aviation history. The image, taken by Aerospatiale, showcases the iconic Concorde 001 plane gracefully landing on a barrier during a test flight in Toulouse on September 18,1968. With its sleek design and revolutionary technology, Concorde was set to revolutionize air travel. The photograph serves as a reminder of the meticulous testing process that preceded this groundbreaking aircraft's first flight from Toulouse on March 02,1969. It would go on to achieve supersonic speeds for the first time on October 01 of that year, paving the way for its eventual commercial flights starting in 1976. Aerospatiale's expertise is evident in this stunning visual documentation of an important milestone in aviation engineering. The precision with which Concorde lands amidst the barriers highlights both the skill of the pilot and the confidence placed in this cutting-edge aircraft. As we gaze upon this remarkable image, we are transported back to a time when dreams took flight and boundaries were pushed beyond imagination. This photograph encapsulates not only Aerospatiale's contribution but also symbolizes human ingenuity and our relentless pursuit of progress
