Oh.. Uhh, I needed a new avatar and I like the picture... the Concorde is (was?) my favorite non-military plane. Incredibly graceful on takeoff and landing. I miss seeing her every other year.

 

when I was at college in the UK, I lived in SE London and had an apartment that
(unfortunately) was in the flight path of Concorde. Seeing that thing fly over at a low height is something that makes you just stand in awe.

If you have ever been on it tho, youll know its not for someone who is claustophobic - its tiny - 2x2 seating

 

I've been in one but never flown. I was amazed at how cramped it was, especially given the price to ride.

When I lived in Oshkosh the Concorde came to the EAA every 2-3 years. I'd sit about 100' off the tarmac and it was awesome to watch on take off and landing.

 

 

Planes are pricey. Too expensive of a habit.
