Sitting on the ground in Aberdeen the Captain nonchanlently said that the timing was right for us to see Concorde coming back from its little run up to Iceland.

Sure enough as we were dropping down towards Midhurst at about 120000 ft we caught a glimpse of here going through our 12 o'clock 1000 below at about 5 miles. I grabbed the Camera the Skipper grabbed the PA. The flight deck burst open as the Purser came in for a gander. As she majestically passed down our left hand side it seemed as I looked back that everyone on the left of the A/c was straining to get a looksey.

The photos are at the developers. If there any good I'll stick em on.

When she gets back were going to make a**** load. Talking to the punters as they left there was a real buzz about the place.

Fantastic day at the office.
