dodgy-alan 1,587 Posted October 23, 2013 Report Share Posted October 23, 2013 It was indeed unforgettable, When I lived in Cranford you could set your clocks by them they were so reliable. Link to post Share on other sites

Christopher Low 63 Posted October 24, 2013 Report Share Posted October 24, 2013 I saw Concorde for the first time at Heathrow back in 1977. This was only a year after the aircraft had entered service. A year later I got a real close up view when it made a touch and go at the Farnborough AirShow. I was 11 years old at the time, and standing right next to the fence. The sound as it powered up the engines to get airborne again was incredible! Link to post Share on other sites
Ruzzo 59 Posted October 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2013 It's been 10 years today since Concorde flew her last commercial flight. You have done it again Rosario But tell me, is that St Elmo's fire playing on each wing? Rosario? James, It's just vapour coming off the wing. Link to post Share on other sites

Put it down to incontinence, loss of memory (I think) constipation, lack of money, lack of sleep, awaiting cold weather payment, meeting Brett in Chile and all sort's of things. Please accept my sorrowful excuse Andrew Keith Malcolm Paul Link to post Share on other sites
rob16584 42 Posted October 24, 2013 Report Share Posted October 24, 2013 Still the greatest. I love it when she came into Leeds, my gran lived about 20 seconds flight time from touchdown, the noise as Concorde flew over the house was incredible. Link to post Share on other sites
