Top right hand shelf in my research office.

It's a really interesting book, albeit rather clumsily written from a training captain's personal notes, about how to fly this beautiful aeroplane - with some fascinating insights into how an aeroplane with some very unusual handling characteristics is flown well and safety. I very much enjoyed reading it. How accurate it is - no idea as I've never had anything, very sadly, to do with Concorde and it's a bit late now.

Where to buy a copy now? No idea - Amazon and ABE, my two usual sources seem to have none. I'd suggest haunting eBay, or setting up a search notification on ABE.

I'm sure that the National Aerospace Library at Farnborough will have a copy you can borrow.
