The dream of supersonic flight has long captivated the aviation industry, promising faster travel times and a futuristic vision of air transportation. The Concorde, a marvel of engineering, brought that dream to life by achieving speeds over twice the speed of sound. However, the story of commercial supersonic flight is one of both triumph and tragedy, with the Concorde’s rise marked by innovation and its fall shaped by economic and environmental challenges.
The history of hot air balloons is deeply intertwined with the city of Paris, where dreams of flight first became a reality. This journey, rooted in the Enlightenment, began with the audacious experiments of the Montgolfier brothers in the 18th century and continues to inspire innovation today. The 2024 Paris Olympics will pay tribute to this legacy with a unique, flying Olympic Cauldron, symbolizing France’s enduring spirit of creativity and adventure.
From the 27th of May to the 1st of June 2024, as AS Bordeaux, we had the opportunity to host a Fly-In, welcoming EUROAVIAns from all over Europe. We took the chance to also organise a conference open to the public during this week, called “Conquering a New Sky”.
This month has been full of new things for AS Bordeaux, the new local board has been presented to our members and has taken office. We (AS Bordeaux retired LB) wish them good luck in their mission this BY.
