We all know about the romance of flying in the old days. The "Catch Me If You Can" days. At the end of that era, when you could still run to the gate, trade tickets, and enjoy travel, the Concorde was the queen of the air. Flying it was something even hardened Hobos talked about It is the one thing I missed out on.
The crash that began the investigation that led to the retirement of the Concorde was concluded- this month! Almost 7 years to the day of it's last flight. The French worked diligently during this time, for over 500 hours, to find out who was to blame. It was not their fault! The other plane did it! It was an American Plane!
Really.
You can't make this stuff up.
