Out of interest I was reading BA's own website Concorde link today.

Some people fly at lot more than some here think. British Airways themselves state (but I agree they too might be plain lying):

"The most frequent Concorde passenger, an oil company executive, has clocked up almost 70 round trip transatlantic crossings a year."

The mind boggles at what other flying that guy undoubtedly slotted in. Nearly 500,000 miles a year flown just on Concorde - and "hours in the air" not as great as the 'scientists' might figger on the Abacus Mark III. That flying runs to considerably less than 10 hours a week.

Anyone care to do the math on what 70 Concorde RT's would COST.
