The Concorde
The sleek Concorde's first flight is commemorated in this 1969 French air mail stamp. The engraved aerodynamic effects in blue and white give us the feel of the supersonic shock wave a photograph would miss.
After decades of flight, the first fatal crash of the Concorde happened near Paris on 25th July 2000. If you are interested in the Concorde, try www.concordesst.com.
