Sweet. Even though Concorde was outdated, you still can't beat it for looks... I have always considered it to be one of the sexiest planes around (another being the SR-71 Blackbird). Wonder why it's the fast ones that're the hottest... :D

The XB-70 is another good one but then it has a few asthetic features in common with the Concorde. :)

Wow, the Concorde deserves a fighter escort.

I always wanted to take a trip on one. *Sigh* No chance now. Nothing but subsonic Boeings.

Meh... to each his own. I always thought the Arrow looked rather ungainly.
