Nearly 2500 names on the 'Save Concorde' petiton now (
www.saveconcorde.co.uk/sign ) - including a few celebs, ex-Concorde pilots and others! Good work - I just hope that Skippy is losing
some sleep over this number of people saying that they'll be choosing airlines other than ba in future! This is what signing the petition means:
"The purpose of this petition is not intended to make us feel guilty if we have to fly with British Airways, but that we acknowledge we will spend a little extra time looking for an alternative when we travel. If an alternative is available, then we choose to fly with that other airline.
By signing this petition, you agree to look for flights with airlines other than British Airways where possible, until October 2004. Beyond this date, Concorde will be difficult to return to flying condition, so please do let your family, friends, colleagues and associates know about this urgent call for help. To send this to a friend, simply cut and paste the website address into your e-mail.
You also recognise that as a consumer, you have the ability to vote with your money, and can influence the decisions of British Airways by showing its shareholders that you choose to fly anyone BUT British Airways until they offer the nation the opportunity to keep Concorde flying!
Further information about Concorde and her plight for flight can be found on the Save Concorde homepage (
