Concorde F-BVFB, at Sinsheim in Germany
Mach 2 Concorde magazine Celebration in Paris Honouring 50 years of Anglo-French excellence Honouring Concorde An award for the British Concorde fleet Focus on Alpha Charlie A major repair, and a look back at an epic flight Concorde watch Issue 24 News from Sinsheim November 2019 Mach 2 November 2019 Introduction This issue of Mach 2 takes off in spectacular fashion. The British group Foxie’s Filton Flyers visited Paris for an event organised by our French allies Olympus 593, featuring a reception at the British Embassy. Concorde was further honoured in a ceremony at the Guildhall in the City of London, when the BA fleet was awarded the Brackley Memorial Trophy for excellence in aviation. Concorde Captains Mike Bannister and John Hutchinson, and engineer John Dunlevy, report on the events of that illustrious evening. We also bring great news about Concorde G-BOAC, at Manchester. The Heritage Concorde team have replaced the broken right-hand windshield: a major repair that has been needed for some years. We look back at the role that G-BOAC played in the route- proving and endurance programme in 1975 – the last step towards certification of the aircraft. We end with a reminiscence from a new contributor, former Concorde flight attendant Jayne van der Vorm. Jayne recalls how she first came to work on Concorde, and the heady days of her career. Finally, we have a report on Concorde F-BVFB, at Sinsheim in Germany.
