True. My apologies on that. I stand by that they didn’t land at jfk on sept 11 though (Maybe you/they are thinking of the Air France one that got stranded there for a bit). See the link below, the first BA Concorde arrived months after, with Rudy Giuliani coming aboard to thank the passengers personally.
