Supersonic flight over land is typically forbidden to minimize disruption to people on the ground. This meant that until it was over open water, Concorde could not operate at its maximum Mach 2 capability.
<h3>What is Concorde?</h3>
The Concorde is a tailless aircraft with a drooping nose, an oval delta wing, and a narrow fuselage that allows for seating for 92 to 128 passengers.
It's improbable that Concorde will ever fly for an airline again in a commercial capacity. The economics of reactivating Concorde and incorporating it into the fleet of a contemporary airline would be challenging to justify, even if the technical and regulatory concerns could be handled.
Supersonic flight over land is usually not allowed to minimize the impact on people on the ground. This meant that Concorde could not operate at its maximum Mach 2 speed until it was over an open body of water.
