Exactly 25 years ago today, an Air France flight departing from Paris to New York tragically crashed just 77 seconds after take-off, claiming the lives of an overwhelming total of 113 people.

On this somber anniversary of the catastrophic crash, the chilling final words spoken by the ill-fated pilot, Captain Christian Marty, to his crew have resurfaced, serving as a poignant reminder of the unimaginable loss.

Flight 4590 was a Concorde passenger jet, renowned for its supersonic speeds, allowing it to traverse the Atlantic in roughly 3.5 hours, compared to the usual seven to eight hours. Unfortunately, it was the only fatal incident involving the Concorde throughout its 27 years of service.

After lifting off from Charles De Gaulle airport, the jet encountered debris left by a prior aircraft, which led to the explosion of one of its tires. Shrapnel from the tire struck critical parts of the plane, including the landing gear and fuel tank, with violent force.

Just one minute and 17 seconds after take-off, the jet experienced a power loss in both engines.

At this moment, air traffic control informed the crew that the plane was on fire, with visible flames from below.

Moments later, it crashed at full speed into a hotel in the small French town of Gonesse.

With today (25 July) marking the 25th anniversary of the tragic crash, the transcript between the captain and co-pilot has resurfaced, revealing that the crew was unaware of the fire until notified by the Charles De Gaulle airport team.

Seconds after take-off, a representative from Paris' control tower warned Captain Marty: "Concorde zero... 4590, you have flames. You have flames behind you."

The flight engineer added: "Breakdown eng... Breakdown engine two. Cut engine two."

An unidentified voice then remarked: "It's burning badly, huh."

"Cut engine two," the flight engineer reiterated.

Marty then instructed: "Engine fire procedure [sound of switch, end of ringing]."

"Warning, the airspeed indicator, the airspeed indicator, the airspeed indicator," his co-pilot Jean Marcot added.

Control tower staff could then be heard informing the crew: "It's burning badly and I'm not sure it's coming from the engine."

Several seconds later, Marty disclosed that he and his co-pilot were trying to gain more speed to attempt an emergency landing at the nearby Le Bourget airport.

"Fire service leader, uh ... the Concorde, I don't know its intentions, get yourself in position near the south doublet," the control tower staff advised.

Tragically, however, seconds later, Marty uttered: "Too late... no time."

The control tower representative then noted: "Fire service leader, correction, the Concorde is returning to runway zero nine in the opposite direction."

"No time, no," pilot Marty responded again.

The transcript then records his co-pilot urgently stating: "Le Bourget, Le Bourget. Negative, we are trying Le Bourget [airport to land]."

Seconds later, Marcot simply said: "No."

16 seconds later, the transcript ends, with the plane crashing into the Hôtelissimo Les Relais Bleus Hotel.

All those on board perished in the crash, along with four people on the ground.

The catastrophic crash significantly contributed to the retirement of the Concorde in November 2003, as passenger numbers dwindled due to both the disaster and the high cost of flying on the aircraft.
