2 Concorde Questions

[gordonroxburgh]

I hope some of the Concorde drivers may be able to help with this one.

1. Does anyone know what A/C BA flew back from JFK with no Pax the day before the official C of A withdrawal?

2. I understand the BA will do 4 transatlantic service / route proving flights before the recommencement of full pax services, but will they also do flight crew training? If so what is the favoured base that would be used for this under the present conditions?

....oh yeh! there is a beer for anyone who can get me on one of the route proving flights!!!

Rumour has it that it will be EINN (Shannon) again for the training.

Prepare for a glut of UFO reports in the Southwestern Irish papers !!

Gordon -

1. Can't remember, I'm sure someone can.

2. We ain't been told, yet! Would imagine that EINN will be one of the likeliest candidates. There is still some flexibility in the retraining plan, which starts in earnest today.

WOK.

ps hope AE and AG are coming on well.

thanks for the answer.

Hopefully soemone will post a few day before the flights, so we can get down to LHR.
