Dammit!!!! The Concorde soon to be grounded for ever.

Poop cack fart and possibly even piddle!!

The one airliner (apart from the boeing 707) that the Loco Bloke wanted to fly on before he dies is about to be grounded.

Falling load factors (down to 20% on some services) and downturn in world passenger numbers have pushed Air France and British Airways to call a halt to the SSC services.

What a bloody tradgedy - and what a magnificent beastie.

I can boast having 2 very good passengers and mates upgraded to SSC ex JFK - and the BA checkin lady said and i quote "Jetset Travel Devonport and British Airways have organised an upgrade to the Concorde for you two gentlemen if that is alright with you."

What do you guys and girls reckon your reaction would be??? How professional was that?

After buying out my partners in the Agency - that was my goal - to one day ride Concorde - have to find a new one now.

Any PPruners had the privelege of the "sporting performance?"

buugger - buugger -buugger!!!

Best all

EWL

Edited to get the buugger back in - not a swear word in Oz - but there ya go!!
