Sounds oddly familiar, did you write the trip up for Pilot magazine?
I did. Good memory Dr. J! It must have been late 1999 or probably early 2000 when James Gilbert published my piece in 'Pilot'.

Peter - the aircraft was in a left turn. The ASIs are quite big on Concorde, with the smaller mach meters below.

I always tell visitors to G-BOAC that that wonderful shape is purely the result of the job the aircraft had to do - no part of it came from any stylist's pen - it's form following function which is why it still looks as good today as it ever did. Art in its purest form.
