mistertwo Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 Don't know how many of you on here are interested in commercial aviation, or Concorde in particular - but I thought I'd post this anyway. Was digging through some old files and found an ATC recording of the last Concorde departure from Kennedy. Most of the RX comms are done by Mike Bannister. My favourite bit is just before take off clearance is given and two or three other aircraft all mysteriously ask if they can stop to "trouble shoot something" on that side of the airfield... blatlently just an excuse to stop and wave her off! I must admit, listening to this did bring out a few goosebumps on me. It's quite sad, in its own way. Anyway, I have attached a zip file to this message, so please have a listen if this is of interest to you. Josh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnny g Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 I love Concorde, I saw this with Mike Bannister. There's another one with John Hutchison as well that Noel Edmonds did. I've also got the last ever landing into Heathrow with Les Brodie - some great videos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pedrosixfour Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 I have one of a take-off from Paris I believe. The commentary is by a local hotel manager. He sounds very excited in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right up until the point it all seems to go fuzzy? I've heard that one too.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
