Concorde - The Last Flight Home by Robert Tomlin. October 24th 2003, and British Airways Concorde G-BOAG makes its final scheduled flight from New York to London under the command of Chief Concorde pilot and General Manager of Concorde Operations, Captain Mike Bannister. With Manhattan now far below, Mike punches through the clouds to take Speedbird 002, Concorde G-BOAG, together with its complement of celebrity passengers through Mach 2 for the last time. |
Concorde over London by Ivan Berryman. A sight never to be repeated. Concorde G-BOAE gracefully drifts above London with Buckingham Palace immediately below, Westminster Abbey, the Houses of Parliament, the River Thames and the London Eye in the middle distance. On 24th October 2003, the world said goodbye to this elegant airliner, bringing to a close almost thirty years of commercial supersonic travel. |

Farewell Concorde by Philip West. Reaching speeds up to Mach 2 - 1,280 mph - Concorde took just three and a half hours to reach New York. |
The Jubilee Flight by Stephen Brown. Concorde and the Red Arrows minutes before the Queens Jubilee Fly past on 4th June 2003. |
Concorde - The Pride of Bristol by Stephen Brown. Full of grace and beauty Concorde G-BOAF taxis toward her final resting place at Filton airfield, Bristol. Proudly waving Union Jack flags from the cockpit are pilot Captain Les Brodie and Concorde chief pilot Captain Mike Bannister. No one who saw Concorde on Wednesday November 26th 2003 could fail to be moved by the sight of this magnificent aircraft as she moved these last few yards with the greatest of dignity under the gaze of the world's media and thousands of local well-wishers. |
Concorde by Michael Turner. Supersonic Concorde at Mach 2, high above the North Atlantic. |
Pride of Britain by Adrian Rigby. London has enjoyed a long association with Concorde, not just as the major base for the aircraft at Heathrow, but also as a participant in the citys major celebrations. Whether it is a royal or national event, a Concorde fly-past is usually one of the highlights of the day; sometimes alone but often in formation with the Red Arrows. |
Hero of the Sky - Concorde by Barry Price. No text for this item |
Concorde - Second to None by Stephen Brown. Having flown over Bristol, her birthplace, Concorde G-BOAC heads out over the Welsh coastline. Here, at 26,000 feet, the inboard reheats are already lit while the outboards have just been selected. A second nudge is sensed as the extra thrust accelerates Concorde towards the speed of sound - Mach 1 (about 675 mph) At Mach 1.7 the reheats are switched off, but the acceleration continues to Mach 2 while Concorde climbs towards 60,000 feet. Three and a half hours after departing London having consumed 80 tonnes of fuel - the same as a Boeing 747, but in less than half the time - Concorde will have arrived in New York. |
