Is she beautiful, or is she? - a photo on Flickriver

One of the most beautiful and elegant airliners ever built.

Shot at Technik Museum Sinsheim, Germany ---> Click

Incidentally, this particular shot shows the weak point in Concorde's design, which led to the crash in June 2000 that killed everyone on board and 4 people on the ground; a total of 113.

The main gear on the Concorde is located quite far to the front, near the air intakes of the engines, of which there are two to starboard and two to port.

The cause of the accident was that tyres of the main gear burst due to debris on the runway. Rubber pieces from the exploding tyres penetrated the walls of the full fuel tanks in the wings from below. A massive fuel leak ensued, with the kerosene being ingested by the port engines and setting them on fire.

On most other aircraft, the engines hang from pods below and ahead of the leading edge of the wings and the main gear is far behind them. The ingestion of fuel leaking from wing tanks is then impossible.
