The Concorde first took to the skies in the 60s and became an iconic airliner for the rich and the famous. It was was ahead of its time; flying at supersonic speeds, this was the first passenger aircraft of its kind. The first passenger flights began in 1976 and completed 27 years of service until it was taken out of the skies and retired in 2003 after a series of incidents and crashes that caused concern. It was too expensive to keep such old technology in the skies, and while it was advanced at the time of manufacture, everything was still mechanical and not computerized and upgrading the whole aircraft fleet would have been to expensive for the operators.
Just Put in your C:/Program Files/Microsoft Games/Microsoft Flight Simulator X/SimObjects/Airplanes folder, then copy the contents of the effects folder into the main FSX effects folder and the plane should work!
(Press Shift+F4 to turn on the Afterburner / Press I to turn on Afterburner and smoke effects)

It looks nice but the gauges fail to work. If anyone can tell me how to get the gauges to work please contact me at sbucknerbcs@yahoo.com
Those of you complaining about the autopilot not holding altitude, you might want to do some research before moaning about it! The concord was designed to accept a VARIABLE altitude into the auto pilot. Concord flew on its own track accross the Atlantic (because it could not be sequenced with slower traffic) and also at least 10 000 feet higher than other commercial traffic - ie about 50 000 feet. Because of this, the autopilot was programmed to allow the aircraft to "hunt" for the best Flight Level according to fuel consumption affecting trim, headwinds etc. Concord was not an ordinary aircraft, and did not operate like ordinary aircraft!
You Should Make a Concorde in the new United Airlines Livery. But either way a very good aircraft
