10 Years

Today it is 10 years since the final commercial Concorde flights, so to mark the occasion here are a few shots I have taken from some of my flights.

stunning, great shots.

I was fortunate enough to visit AC in New York on her 10 year anniversary. It was a rainy day, but she's in great shape. I actually went inside for the tour, sat in seat 3D. The leather is just as fresh as in 03. A little bit aggravated that the guide sort of turned the tour into what felt like a promotional spot for the A380 :/

The cockpit however is just, WOW.

AC is actually located at Manchester, England, the flagship of the BA fleet. New York is home to AD. http://heritageconcorde.com/facts/work3/concorde-today/visit-concorde-in-the-usa

Do they do a Technical Tour over there. I did the AC one and it's brilliant. You're even allowed to sit in the left-hand seat. :D

I did the technical tour and photographed G-BOAC when it was in the open. Understandably, the Manchester weather was not conducive to leaving her in the open and a hangar was built to house her. Whilst this provides excellent protection it does mean you can't take good photos any more.
