Speedbird 2

A liveatc.net user kindly posted a clip of the last departure of the British Airways Concorde flight from New York to London.

Lots of thanks flying back and forth as well as having both the original approach and tower controllers who greeted the first Concorde landing in '77 was there to handle the last departure.

It's a shame this aircraft isn't flying anymore. I wonder when supersonic flight will return to commercial airlines.

I remember counting 4 AF Concorde's at CDG one year when we landed. What a shame.
