    Not sure why this thread got onto this group, but it looks like a bike is going to be the only way
    to get near Heathrow on the day. If any of you make the journey you should get the triple treat of
    one landing on each runway and a third flying over the top avec les Red Arrows (like the Heathrow
    50th in 1996, and possibly the Golden Jubilee or did I dream that?)

    It was a bit of a lager fuelled evening by me. I have a photo of the Jubilee here
    (local-serve.comConcorde.jpg)

    The red arrows are in Lyon and are reportedly not going to be there. Would be surprised of a fly-by,
    although BAA are keeping lids on things to try and keep numbers down.

    I'm cycling there. Blasted wind.

    Enjoy. Thanks for the pic (now resplendent as wallpaper)

  4. Way, way off topic, but does anyone have a link to the flight path today?

  5. I work in Staines but we have another office overlooking the airport which the Company opened up a a
    viewing point today. Concorde's always been part of my life, with my frst jobs out of college being
    at BAC and Rolls Royce in Bristol when Concorde was in the test flying stage. I remember everyone
    going out onto the airfield to watch each aircraft make it's first flight.

    Off topic? Rubbish! I took the mountain bike to work in the car, and cycled round the airport to see
    the old girls land!!!

    And it's now my wallpaper. I hope you don't mind. OK, I had to squish the image a little to get a
    4:3 ratio - so be it. 1.52 is reasonably close to 1.33 anyway.
