Do you miss the Concorde?

[roguejuror]

Always wanted to fly in one of these. There should be supersonic commercial planes, absurd no one develops a viable solution.

 

[MrMonkey]

NO!!! I'll fly coach!

 

[Mudcat]

It had an interesting nose.

 

[roguejuror]

mister monkey why you such a hater?

 

[Acid Joe]

I would have killed the king to fly in one of those..... sign me up to go to denver I'll kill the goat.

 

[MrMonkey]

mister monkey why you such a hater?

No hater, just that I don't like flying, no control over how I die! Drowning, plane crash, and death in fire 3 ways I don't want to go.

Talk about a thread going a different direction....

I actually have drowning wayyyyy up the top of my list of possible ways. Won't happen, but compared to the rest, drowning seems pretty appealing. You inhale a bunch of water, pass out and dead. HOORAY!

Yea, getting old and rotting away from cancer sounds super. I'm with Fiver.

 

[MrMonkey]

Cancer

Lots of morphine! Then more morphine! Juice me up! All mirrors in the house go!

Great White I can at least do battle for a short time, Tortured? Who would want to torture the monkey? Trash compactor, you got me there. A wood chipper would be even worse!

In a plane those last couple minutes going down your helpless with mind torture!

Drowning is not appealing to me at all. Plane crash though hell yeah. Every time the plane is on the runway and high gears speeding up to launch I ceremoniously say in mind "this is it this might be it" and smirk a little.

 

[Acid Joe]

drowning seems cool to me..... drive into the river don't come out...... perfect.....

 

[MrX]

Drowning is supposed to be awesome. Pretty much anything that kills you through hypoxia without serious trauma to the rest of your body is supposed to be a pretty pleasant experience.

 

[Matty]

I didn't find death very pleasing. 1.5 Matty Rain.

I was at an airport at one point that had one of these just sitting there...kinda like a monument. I was talking about how I always wanted to fly on one of those things. They looked super cool...

I wonder why nothing has been developed something like this for commercial use....is everyone afraid?

 

[Saulty]

The problem with the Concorde is that the airports were not being developed with the aircraft in mind. It needs longer runaways to land and the most critical part is the noise. No one wants to leave next to an airforce base. The noise is deafening when it lands or takes off due to breaking the sound barrier.

Crazy-looking bird. RIP Concourde.
