For anyone who's interested, this Wiki is
surprisingly complete -- even brutal -- in
its evaluation of the "Konkordski"........

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tupolev_Tu-144

Worth the read--some of it is shocking!

It seems the Russians went ahead and
built an aircraft they had no real clue as
to how it ought to be done!

Why didn't they copy Vulcan???????????

Maybe Avro had no Spies on the payroll!!!!!!!

Seems like Concorde was better, it looks better and more comfortable to me. The Tupolev just looks like an experiment and almost a failure in my opinion.
Fly fast jets and/or C130s over my house please, I'm bored!
