Post Calling all or any Concorde aircrew....

Any Concorde aircrew out there?

If so, how about contributing to the thread:

"Did the pilot originally scheduled to fly that Concorde refuse?"
http://www.pprune.org/cgibin/ultimat...c&f=1&t=015105

It's developed into a discussion as to the likely effect of taking off overweight (and with an aft c of g), and the likely survivability of forced landings, etc., but there's an inevitable tendency for those with axes to grind (the French and the Francophobes, perhaps including myself) to get a little entrenched.

Though I started the thread, I had no idea how fascinating it would become.

There is no such thing as too much information or expert comment.

Anyone with the required privileges to re-post this request in the BA section?

Many thanks.
