Concorde
I always wanted to ride in this airplane. With the announcement that the Concorde
fleet will be retired in the fall of 2003, I guess I'll never get my chance.

Taxiing at RAF Fairford. In the early development days of the Concorde, the fest aircraft flew from
Fairford. On this day a few lucky people got to ride in this Concorde to an airshow at Fairford. They
flew out of Heathrow (London) Airport, out over the sea west of England, went supersonic, then landed
at Fairford to enjoy the airshow. The helicopter had a camera crew in it shooting a documentary.
