The aircraft involved was a 25-year-old Aérospatiale-BAC Concorde (registration F-BTSC, serial number 203) that had its maiden flight on 31 January 1975 (during testing, the aircraft's registration was F-WTSC). į-BTSC, the Concorde involved in the accident, photographed in 1985 It was the only fatal Concorde accident during its 27-year operational history. The passengers were on their way to board the cruise ship MS Deutschland in New York City for a 16-day cruise to Manta, Ecuador. The flight was chartered by German company Peter Deilmann Cruises. Six other people in the hotel were critically injured. All 109 people on board were killed, alongside four in the hotel. Lack of thrust, high drag from the extended landing gear, and fire damage to the flight controls made it impossible to control the aircraft, which crashed into a hotel in nearby Gonesse two minutes after takeoff. Fuel from the ruptured tank ignited, causing a loss of thrust in engines 1 and 2. Tyre fragments severed wiring in the landing gear bay, preventing retraction of the landing gear. When the tyre fragments struck the wing, the tank ruptured, thereby releasing large quantities of fuel. The fuel tank built inside the left wing was full, with almost no ullage. On the afternoon of Tuesday, 25 July 2000, at 16:44:31 local time (UTC 14:44:31), the aircraft serving the flight (registration F-BTSC) ran over debris on the runway during takeoff, blowing a tyre, which threw chunks of tyre into the underside of the left wing and into the landing gear bay with great force.
