Planes That Never Flew is a Discovery Channel documentary series about experimental aircraft projects that never flew. Over four one-hour episodes, the series examined the history behind aborted projects to build two jet fighters, a supersonic transport, and a nuclear-powered long range bomber.
This definitive history of manned flight has been compiled into 26 hour episodes, with access to some of the rarest archive film ever taken. Unprecedented co-operation has been extended by the world's leading aircraft manufacturers and leading archive libraries. Included in the footage are shots of rare prototype accidents and failures which contributed to the inevitable achievement and success of man in the air. Since Charles Lindbergh became the first lone aviator to cross the Atlantic in 1927, air transport has greatly accelerated , revolutionised by the giant Boeing 747 Jumbo Jet - and what might we see in the 21st century?
CONCORDE: THE UNTOLD STORY is a two-episode documentary that goes inside the race to build the first supersonic airliner at the height of the Cold War, with Europe's Concorde racing against the Soviet TU144 and the American Boeing 2707. The two-parter unearths a tale of espionage and national prestige as the British and French battled their counterparts, while examining the technical challenges in the battle for supersonic passenger jet supremacy. They all ultimately end in failure.
From the first men in their flying machines to World War One, from the first Atlantic crossing to the supersonic era, this is the story of the most daredevil challenges the world has ever known, braved by the men and women who wrote the history of human flight.
Join pilot and journalist Kate Broug for a global adventure that brings to life the extraordinary individuals and audacious achievements that have defined the world of flight.
