Never to be experienced again..
« on: 06 June 2010, 00:01:08 »

I was going to dig out the recent Concorde thread but could find it easily.

Anyway, here's a flight which we are unlikely ever to experience again.

Enjoy!

Just something about Concorde, a truly magnificent awe inspiring creature.
  Music is fitting too.

dont mean to brag but i won a flight on concorde in 1994.i flew from humberside to heathrow,the flight took 20 minutes and it was absolutely awesome, was like being fired out of a gun.leather seats,total luxury,well worth the experience.i also made front page of our local newspaper (grimsby evening telegraph) , headline was " local lorry driver goes supersonic".ps i have souvenirs as proof,some of them maybe should have been left on the plane....naughty me !!

Hopefully one of them will fly again, sadly not the concorde in Nickbat's video as the wings were cut off and badly grafted back on when it was moved to East Fortune, and most of BA's concordes are purposely being left to rot so as not to be brought back to life, shameful >:(
