In a historic move that will transform the future of aviation, engineers are preparing the world’s most iconic supersonic aeroplane to fly again by 2026, 50 years after its groundbreaking first flight changed the course of aviation history forever.

When President Donald J. Trump signed an executive order on June 6th, 2025, quickly dubbed the “Concorde Bill”, he lifted a decades-long ban on supersonic passenger flights. Initially imposed due to concerns over sonic booms and environmental impact, it stifled supersonic innovation by prohibiting flights over land. The new regulation aims to foster innovation in aviation, taking inspiration from the iconic Concorde, which introduced commercial supersonic passenger flights.

The new Concorde will be 50% lighter, utilising next-generation composite materials, powered by Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF), and will achieve an 80% reduction in emissions. The elegant exterior form will remain unchanged, but everything else about the aeroplane will be modern and groundbreaking.  The interiors will feature a refined Japanese aesthetic designed by leading sustainable architects. Operating at 60,000 feet, the new Concorde will fly cleaner, greener, quieter, and faster than it did before. Backed by five decades of advances in aerospace engineering, materials science, and supersonic travel, it will be safer, more sustainable, and commercially viable. But it will be in every other sense – “The Concorde” that is still so beloved around the world.

“Beyond its appeal as arguably the most majestic plane to ever take to the skies, Concorde is set to become the global benchmark for sonic boom suppression and sustainability,” said Patricia Bader-Johnston, Vice President and Chief Development Officer at Fly-Concorde Limited.

Leading the comeback is Dr. Pano Kroko Churchill, CEO and Founder of the Concorde Co. of Washington state. Sir Winston Churchill launched the original Concorde as a post-war peace initiative, and his legacy lives on in Dr Churchill, who has set his sights on flying again by 2026, 50 years after the first Concorde flew. 

A triple PhD and trained physicist from Oxford, Dr Churchill has dedicated over 23 years to solving the sonic boom challenge, culminating in the world’s first Patent on Sonic Boom Suppression, finally awarded just in May of this year – just in time for the tidal change in aviation progress ushered in by the US Executive order.

Underpinning its aviation development, Fly-Concorde is embracing digital innovation with the launch of Concorde Coin (CSSC), a stablecoin backed by Concorde’s assets and operations. As global markets show increasing confidence in blockchain-based financial instruments, CSSC offers a new way to engage with Concorde’s future-forward vision.

The Concorde brand embodies excellence in aviation and earns great respect for its achievements. Today, it is estimated to be worth $50 billion and is poised to reclaim its position at the pinnacle of luxury global aviation.
