Not sure how they got the tower number, but took a call from an irate motorist once who said Concorde gave them such a fright there should be traffic lights on the M25 to stop the traffic before it took off...
As the roar of Concorde subsided on departure it was replaced by the sound of numerous car alarms going off in the car parks adjacent to the runway.
