What, no 747-400 to stop and pick them up?
Did this stuff happen all the time with Concorde and just miss the news radar screen?
I'm wondering if the heightened awareness of Concorde in her final days is why all these stories are hitting the news. Or, if it's just runs of bad luck and bad timing that happen to coincide.
