Ahh, just thinking about the day....
Checkin at Paddington Station, which BA no longer does.
Rail into LHR passing one steam train along the rails,
A few hours in a pub with one of the engineers that prepped G-BOAC the day before.
A relaxing massage in the Spa at Heathrow.
The takeoff of a lifetime.
Feeling the afterburners kick back on over water, 2 by 2.
Marvin Gaye's "Flying High" at 58,500 feet.
Lots of JW Blue, caviar and champagne.
Arriving over Long Island to see snow covering the ground.
Left LHR at 1820 local time, arrived JFK at 1730 local time.
Great times on Concorde. What a great time.
