November 26, 200322 yr Hi Quentin,The big white bird flew into retirement today.She passed overhead Lulsgate (Bristol International Airport) at12.55 heading west to east before turning to land.The airport came to a virtual standstill as everyone went outside to watch, but unfortunately, she was too high for any good pictures,there was a better reception waiting at Filton though, with a Spitfire Mk19 'escort' :-)Here's a link to BBC Bristol 'Concorde' special, as you'll see the weather today was foul,thunderstorms,hail and gale force winds too,with the occasional bright spot in between the squalls.:-wavePetehttp://www.bbc.co.uk/bristol/content/conco...6/filton1.shtml
