Chapter 2639
Concorde was once the only supersonic airliner in the world that was truly put into
commercial operation.
For many young people, they may not know this aircraft at all, but they have to admit that
this aircraft has written a strong fortune in the history of civil aviation.
Looking at thew of development of human science and technology over the past
few decades, an interesting phenomenon will be discovered, that is, people have
been rtively conservative in the development of science and technology in recent
years.
However, during the Cold War from the 1960s to the 1980s, it was a golden age when
human technology thrived and developed wildly and rapidly.
The people of that era showed unprecedented enthusiasm and radicalism in the field
of science and technology.
In the era when theputing power ofputers was not as good as the Cassidy
Learning Machine, the Soviet Union sent astronauts to space and the United States sent
astronauts to the moon.
Also in that era, people lost interest in ordinary subsonic civil aviation aircraft and began
to step into the supersonic era with their heads high.
In 1975, the Concorde airliner that could reach twice the speed of sound was officially put
into use. At that time, people had already enjoyed the supersonic airliner at 2,150
kilometers per hour.

Now, it takes nearly two hours to fly from Eastcliff to Aurous Hill, but if you take the
Concorde, it only takes 25 minutes.
It is a pity that although this aircraft is extremely fast, its fuel economy is extremely poor,
so with the arrival of the economic crisis and a serious flight ident, this aircraft
withdrew from the civil aviation stage in 2003 and has since disappeared from the world.
Today, most people don’t even remember the existence of this aircraft, but several of
these aircraft have been well preserved.
And, without exception, all became the exclusive cars of the top rich.
Charlie’s grandfather Zhongquan has one.
His Concorde airliner was bought and spent huge financial resources on transformation
and maintenance. Up to now, it costs tens of millions of dors in basic maintenance
costs every year.
However, Zhongquan spent so much money on this ne, but it is difficult for him to fly
once a year.
However, for the top big families, this kind of aircraft is equivalent to the nuclear
weapons of a big country. It can be kept in storage at ordinary times and will not be used
for several years or even decades, but once a major event requires it, it can be put into
use immediately.
Therefore, Issac thought of this method. As long a Zhongquan is willing to lend this
Concorde to Charlie, Charlie will be sent to Syria within four and a half hours, nothing to
say!
However, Zhongquan valued this aircraft very much. He hadn’t used it for anyone except
himself. Even his children did not have the opportunity to use it.
And Issac was just a spokesperson for the Wade family in Aurous Hill. He couldn’t
even get in touch with Zhongquan directly, so Charlie could only talk to Zhongquan
about this matter.
Charlie was instantly awakened by his words.
He couldn’t hide his excitement and blurted out: “It’s great! If there is a Concorde, you
can save more than half of your time at once!”
As he said, he immediately took out his cell phone and said, “I will call him, and I will
borrow this ne anyway!”
Issac said with some worry: “Master, it is said that your grandfather has very precious
thoughts about this ne. He has never loaned it out or let anyone other than himself use
it. I am now worried that he will not be willing to lend it to you.”
Charlie said solemnly, “No matter what, please give a call first and try!”
After speaking, he hit his grandfather Zhongquan.
