A masterpiece of Soviet engeneering!!!

She does look better than the Concorde, but she wasn't better, the Concorde didn't need a parachute or those fancy ears and the Concorde lasted a lot longer.

Tu-144 is my favorite plane. I`ve never seen this photo before and color photos of that time and this plane are quite rare.

She looks nicer than the Concorde, specially without the canard "ears" and with the retracted nose canopy.

Straight like an arrow!

Damn, looks pretty hot with those ugly ears on the front retracted... I always feel strange when I read these CCCP regs!

A visitor from Poland posted Thu May 21, 2009:
One of the most beautiful planes ever built. I think it looks even more graceful than a Concorde.
