Sad News. In 1971 or 72 Brian flew Concorde on a demo flight to Australia. We were sitting in our office at Melbourne Airport (where the engineers and others had dumped their bags) having a coffee, somebody said something about 'afterburner'. Brians retort has stuck with me since then, "The Americans have afterburner, the British call it re-heat but we at BAC we call it 'overdrive'.
Cheers Brian
