That's the first time I've heard that clip and I have to agree with Coffin Dodger. A really emotional recollection, it must have been so difficult to stay so professional on a day like that.

And all the other aircraft saying goodbye was so thoughtful, especially the 'ordinary heavies' asking for somewhere to delay departure so they could watch Concorde's last take off. Given how much approbation she collected the first time she went to New York, it seems New Yorkers eventually found a place in their hearts for her.

Thanks for posting that CD.

Roger.
