On January 21,  Aerospace Bristol welcomed over 30 ex-Concorde captains, first officers, flight engineers and cabin crew to celebrate the 50th anniverary of Concorde’s legendary first commercial flight on January 21, 1976.

​

The anniversary was brought to life in dramatic fashion as Concorde Alpha Foxtrot – the last Concorde to fly – performed a timed ‘droop nose’ moment at 11:40am, marking the exact point the first commercial flight took off.

​

I had the opportunity to cover the event and interview a couple of ex-Concorde crew members. Below is the coverage of the event.
