Concorde 01 is seen here landing at the BAC flight test facility Fairford (FFD / EGVA) UK - England, 1975after a test flight during the winter of early 1975 – the exact date was unfortunately not recorded. The picture was taken from the Concorde car park, which was near the eastern end of Runway 09-27 (now the RIAT park-and-view entrance). 01 was the first pre-production aircraft, and first flew 4 months after roll-out at Filton on 20 Sep 1971. It was the last airframe with the short tail and skid without wheels.

Kai Tak and Concorde.....gone, but wonderful, wonderful memories. Pictured here rotating from Runway 13 as part of a round the world flight - Hong Kong - Kai Tak International (HKG / VHHH) (closed) China - Hong Kong, Early 1990's




After retiring on Nov. 5, 2003, this brilliant Concorde is now preserved in the Museum of Flight in Seattle. You can clearly see the very well-preserved panels and equipments as well as the seat layout in the flight deck: the Captain on the left, the First Officer on the right, and behind them the Flight Engineer facing his panel partly visible in the photo. How I wish she were still capable of flying! - Seattle - Boeing Field / King County International (BFI / KBFI) USA - Washington, March 18, 2013
