Why it matters

The short story

London to New York in three and a half hours, champagne level, for twenty-seven years — the only supersonic airliner that ever worked, and increasingly the only one that ever will. Britain kept most of the fleet: six gazetteer sites hold one, from the first British prototype at Yeovilton to Alpha Charlie at Manchester. Every one of them still gathers a silent crowd at the nose.
