Concorde. No more to be said
I don't know who you are. I don't know what you want. If you are looking for my signature, I can tell you I don't have one. But what I do have are a very particular lack of skills, skills I have imagined having over a very long career. Skills that make me are completely useless in any situation. If you stop reading now, that'll be the end of it. I will not look for you, I will not pursue you. But if you don't stop reading, I will look for you, I will probably not find you, and I will kill your refrigerator.

The year is 1959. After suffering multiple midair explosions, the De Havilland Comet, the world's first jet airliner, is on a downward spiral in popularity, and the window of opportunity is open for another company to take the lead in the nascent Jet Age. Pan Am, the unofficial flag carrier of the United States, has purchased the brand-new 707 quadjet airliner by the Boeing Company, truly launching the latter company's three-decade-long reign of supremacy over Western commercial aviation with its 7x7 series.
