The only aircraft where you boarded without your jacket as these were taken from you in the lounge and put on the aircraft separately. You got them back on the descent into JFK or LHR.

Always remember just just before it was retired one of the maintenance guys joking as we boarded that they had made sure that the tail fin had its elastic bands fitted. An Air France Concorde had lost its tail fin over the Atlantic the week before.
