My best Concorde moment happened when I was playing hockey in Marlow. Ironically we were playing a BA-related team (Silver Wings social club?) and we had just equalised to make the score 1-1 when the ref blew up for no apparent reason. Naturally we all yelled "What was that for ?" and the ref simply pointed up and said "Look, it's Concorde" Amazingly there wasn't a single complaint and all 22 players stood and watched it climb out of sight. Doesn't happen a lot with Boeings.
(By the way we won 2-1 in extra time!)
