My trip report wasnt based on " quantity " way of thinking (but i admit it is big LOL), its aim was to show how i got my Concorde ticket (as the people who helped me get my ticket deserve a huge huge huge amount of praise and thanks for all the hard work and time they put in to this)

I also wanted to make it as realistic and as true to life as possible to show people who never flew on Concorde "what it was like" to fly on Concorde including actual ATC and the most common question of all "what it was like" to break the sound barrier and chase the sun at twice the speed of sound at 58,000 ft.

Now that Concorde isnt flying any more people who've never flown on her will never get the chance to experience what i experienced.

So i felt i had to write all this in the trip report, i have seen trip reports by many others one person noted down things like height, speed, time etc every 10 mins but i dont think any one has written anything as detailed as i have about a Concorde flight as i wrote it from a " human " point of view and not like a computer
i.e.
what height we flew at, how fast, time to cover such and such point etc.
