I thought my fellow Concorde lovers might be interested in seeing these videos of the last Air France Concorde departure from JFK which an American friend sent me. They're in the public domain but I don't think they've been posted on Pprune before.

The first two were filmed from the roof of the JFK Tower, with tower-aircraft audio.
The third was filmed from the side of the runway.
They are big files, but very good quality. If you're on dialup connection, you may want to download them.

Tri-colour 'Water Salute' from the Port Authority Police, and taxi from the stand.

Position and hold, goodbyes, takeoff, controller from top of tower, shots of the controllers who worked the flight.

From the Runway -- Aviation photographer Carlos Borda was on the side of the runway when AFR001 took off... http://www.daveschoen.com/carlosbordalastconc53103.mpg (Sound is poor.)


Mini-sampler to whet the appetite .....

These are of AF. Hopefully there'll be even better videos of the last BA departure.
