For nearly 30 years, travelers enjoyed the thrill of flying faster than sound. Remember the iconic Concorde? This supersonic jet zoomed at 1,350 mph, making transatlantic flights in under three hours. That’s twice as fast as today’s commercial flights! Unfortunately, the Concorde was retired in 2003, and commercial flights haven’t been as speedy since. But, if you fly private, you can almost hit Mach 1 (767 mph), the speed of sound.
