Concorde passed over my house tonight at 18.23Z on her last flight to New
York. The noise was terrific. She was a bit late as she normally comes over
during supper at about 17.50Z.
Whatever we stop eating and say she is on time, she late etc.
I can honestly say that I never got bored with Concorde or found the noise
intrusive.
Far more irritating is the whiny turbofans in the anonymous spam can
airliners from Boeing and Airbus.
I am sorry to say that Concorde is the last of the airliners with character
and style where air travel might still have been a bit of a pleasure rather
than just a cramped and crowded bus ride.
All that left now is to see three Concordes land in sequence tomorrow at
15.00Z as they return from New York, Edinburgh and a staff round the Bay
trip from LHR.
It is just a shame that Concorde will not be flying on 17th December.
