Concorde sim

I flew it some years back (it was digital then). It was first prize in a school raffle, and the winner had no interest in it, so said I (knowing I am nuts about anything that flies) could have the prize instead for nothing!.
I found it truly amazing, having only flown Chipmunk's for real until then.
One ironic point, is that the instructor "flew" us through the twin towers in New York, and joked that of course it could not be done for real!. The whole thing is still fresh in my mind, including landing in Japan.
