I know this is late in the post, but thanks so much for thinking of me and Peter while on the Concorde to inquire about the clocks! I am sorry you didn't get any souveniers, but I didn't even get a certificate! It was still an amazing experience, and I am extremely fortunate that I was able to fly on both AF and BA's Concorde's. That's one thing that DL has been great for, getting enough miles to fly on AF's Concorde!
Your trip report is fantastic so far, and I also like the "installments" method. Keeps us coming back for more!
I am very glad to know that you were able to fly Concorde before she was retired end of May. Such a sad day, but the memories of flying Concorde will always be with me! At least I know which planes I flew on, and can go visit them in the museums. How many people can point to a plane in a museum and say that you have actually been FLYING in that particular plane? Found out that I was lucky enough to fly on F-BTSD, the record breaking Concorde.
Can't wait to hear about your return flight!
