The fastest airliner ever
To date the fastest airliner is the Tupolev Tu-144 which was reported to have reached Mach 2.4, or 2,587 km/h (1,600 mph). The Tupolev TU-144 was built in competitive spirit to the British and French Concorde supersonic jetliner, however one of the aircraft crashed during a presentation at the Paris Air Show in 1973. The Tupolev TU-144 was nicknamed 'Charger'.
