The Concorde was built for the specific purpose to fly across the Atlantic. Boeing on the other hand built the 747 SP for a long haul passenger aircraft, and claims that it is the fastest plane available for flights over 8,000 miles (non-stop from New York to Hong Kong). Of course that's still a 13+ hour flight : ) stu@ndcheg.cheg.nd.edu
