A: There are a number of reasons why the Concorde doesn’t fly anymore. The most significant reason is that the aircraft is no longer economically viable. The Concorde was designed and built in the 1960s and 1970s, and it was never designed to be a cost-effective aircraft. The operating costs of the Concorde are high, and the aircraft is now too old to be competitive with more modern aircraft. In addition, the Concorde is no longer able to fly at supersonic speeds, due to the effects of aging on the aircraft.
