As a humble, subsonic, low altitude and single engine pilot- I miss Concorde for all she represented. A magnificent testament to not only the human mind, but the human spirit. To human achievement!

A stunningly elegant and powerful symbol of national pride for the British and French, a globe spanning display of engineering genius that we all marveled at.

I can only imagine the excitement and fulfillment that those posting here must have felt for the time that they knew her. Those who flew her truly did solo under lucky stars. Those who maintained her, engineered her, looked after her must have enjoyed immense satisfaction by doing something that MATTERED in life. What more can one ask for?

The world is truly a much duller place without Concorde..alas.
