Question for Concorde crews

Does anyone know if the Concorde crews that flew London-New York stayed overnight or was it a turn for them?

Always at least a nightstop. Never a round trip.

This was always cutting edge technology for all the time it was in service. Many (most some would say) trips were like a sim exercise. Malaga and back in a 737 it certainly wasn't.

hey, didn't concorde pilots have six stripes and copilots 5 or something ? Not to mention the extra-extra-extra-extra scrambled eggs on their hats ? Wow, six stripes. I would get dizzy just looking at it


Always wanted to know that.
