U.K. to block any sale of JAS-39s to Argentina

An unsafe plane...

By what definition?

One plane crashed guys, looks like EVERY AIRCRAFT EVER is unsafe.

and if they were British, thats even worse.

[Novia Soviet Socialist Republic]

A technological marvel not yet repeated? Yes, what of it?

An unsafe plane...

Out of the 20 built how many crashed?

[Fartsniffage]

The RAF also performed some logistical magic to get them to Stanley.

An understatement if I ever saw one.
Possibly most ambitious air operation of the RAF ever, since or to come.

The number of tankers alone was amazing, getting them to the right places at the right times over 4000 miles of airspace, refueling each other all the way.....

Fucking mind boggling.

[The balkens]

Terrible example.

Yes because you obviously fail to prove why the concorde is safe,

How many of the planes crashed?

[Manisdog]

Out of the 20 build how many crashed?

What part of they are banned, you don't understand ?

1 out of 20 isn't a really good track record though.

They aren't banned.

Because they were probably expensive as fuck to maintain, not to mention fuel costs?

[Blakullar]

Good. That should make some headway into forcing a serious rethink on the Argentines' part about treating the Falklanders with the contempt they have.

[Novia Soviet Socialist Republic]

Out of the 20 build how many crashed?

What part of they are banned, you don't understand ?

They aren't banned. They went out because they were too expensive to maintain.

Out of the 20 built how many crashed?

1 out of 20 isn't a really good track record though.

Statistically compared to other planes its about average.

I read through the last few pages and got a headache.

It was one crash in a 27 year operational history. I'd say that was a good track record and the general design of the concorde had nothing to do with the disaster.

You do realize that this sort of "argument" could be used to pick at every example of difficulty in your own country's history, ending with the conclusion that it's dangerous for you to even be allowed on a computer in case you hurt yourself? Don't like that? Well that's the level you're operating at with your sickening racism.

You should feel for me as well then.

Kinda is when you think that those 20 racked up just shy of a million flight hours between them. I'd wager that one crash in a million flight hours would compare favourable with aircraft of other, much simpler and more standard designs.

[Gun Manufacturers]

also let us not forget concorde

Concorde has only had ONE crash during its ENTIRE service lifetime of almost 30 years. That's pretty excellent. Try again.

Sadly for you it's pretty self-evident that Britain's aviation industry has, since the 2nd World War, been at the forefront of the world, overtaken by the US due to its size and economy, but still functioning competitively and in ways above its own weight.

Just like... Well, everything else about Britain, tbh.

Putting your anglophobia aside, do you know the Concorde was half French? That's why it's spelled wrong

Come back and speak like the big man when your country can feed its own people and maintain a transport infrastructure whose main operational goal seems to be to kill as many people as possible.

You do remember the landing gear failed and concorde has problems with tyres,

No not really, An average luftwaffe pilot had more kills than his RAF counterpart, Britain just had more planes at the end of the war and goering was to bombing the civilians instead of radars and factories
