Yes it is the latest CONCORDE ever build. Has it’s very own museum now.. and it’s own very dedicated Fan Club here in town. Including me))Is that a Concorde? My ex-boss used to fly this like we take buses. I believe it cost around $10,000 RT.
I love the idea of such a short trip, but that type of speed would scare the out of me.Yes it is the latest CONCORDE ever build. Has it’s very own museum now.. and it’s own very dedicated Fan Club here in town. Including me))
Mine too.Is that a Concorde? My ex-boss used to fly this like we take buses. I believe it cost around $10,000 RT.
Only a wishhhhhhhhh to be heard and a number on the display MACH 2 maybe the rest was all champagne and Caviar. Sometimes close to the end of Commercial flights they had no more then 8 paying passengers.....I love the idea of such a short trip, but that type of speed would scare the out of me.
I cannot imagine operating this.Have a look in the cockpit View attachment 148213View attachment 148214
I say!
Wow, thanks rizole! Congrats to Star and HansIn reverse order this week:
HM's to
Coronation80 for his numerous pics but my favorite is His and Her boots. Strong shapes, strong stance and there's a feeling to it I can't put my finger on.
GroovyGouvy for Eye C U. (Should it be ICU?)
In third is Breconrambler for suggesting human forms without showing them with his plane and cockpit photos but especially for Tongue and cheek. Nice portrait, funny, nice perspective.
In second is Starzee with Human Form Hovered. Well composed with several sections to it and the shapes losing regularity and gaining natural forms from bottom to top. The orange splash and angle adds a nice suprise.
First this week is ImageArt
Killing fields is very striking and puts me on the psychological and emotional backfoot. Powerful.
My absolute fav this week is Hand-some.
Simplicity and complexity. Mostly blue and yellow, which compliment each other well, but with skin(ish) which is the least used colour and the most impactful for it. There's a pop feel about the design and it could esily be used as design. Stick it on a book, album, poster or just frame it.
Hands are interesting things in them selves, again very simple but very complex. The superimposition of one hand over the other gives me a feel of hands reaching for each other, a very human contact. The pink(ish) shape they make where they cross is fractally organic.
Nice work.
Wow! Thanks for awarding me second among so many fantastic human forms. Congratulations to everyone else and I loved ImageArt Ann’s hands.In reverse order this week:

Sweet! I flew on that thing way back in 1979. Every passenger was given a gray leather case with a menu, safety card, postcards, and a certificate. I still have that stuff somewhere. It was pretty cool as I got a seat fairly forward so the view out the window was better than further back. It was an awesome ride!All aboard please Ladies and Gentleman London to New York in 3 hours 20 minutes View attachment 1481903 hours 20 minutes
So lucky u supersonic with a view out the window being itself only the size of a postcard... every so often there are still Concord dinners organised in the shadow of the plane .. always a very elegant and including Sponsors gathering....Sweet!

After takeoff they throttled back and then kicked in the after burners two at a time. There was a push, then another, as the second set was lit up. It felt a bit like someone had bumped up from behindI love the idea of such a short trip, but that type of speed would scare the out of me.
It was cool. David Frost was on my flight making people laugh behind me. That sounds like a trip too! I wouldn’t mind attending one of those.So lucky u supersonic with a view out the window being itself only the size of a postcard... every so often there are still Concord dinners organised in the shadow of the plane .. always a very elegant and including Sponsors gathering....View attachment 148331
COOL!!! I heard there's not much room/leg room? Its rather small and cramped because of the aerodynamic shape of the plane. Giving up some luxury for such a quick flight. Was that your experience?Sweet! I flew on that thing way back in 1979. Every passenger was given a gray leather case with a menu, safety card, postcards, and a certificate.

Leg room, as I remember, wasn't too bad as every seat was essentially first class. Having said that the front half was evidently spiffier than the back half. There wasn't much headroom for basketball playersCOOL!!! I heard there's not much room/leg room? Its rather small and cramped because of the aerodynamic shape of the plane.
