I am impressed he filmed all the way from the terminal , like RUclips vloggers do today. I wish more people from the video camcorder days could have shot more footage than they did.
I don't know if it is me, but I find it outstanding that this was recorded only 1.5 years after 911 yet the quality of the recording feels like something recorded in 2010, it only took less than two years from passing the 90's aesthetic in home video cameras to a quality similar to the ones we have today!!!
Back in these days the camcorders were quite bulky compared to a modern smartphone, with fairly limited battery and storage (tapes). You generally saved them for special occasions. Taking a camcorder out in public for general day-to-day 'blogging' wasn't really the done thing; people around you would be self-conscious and you'd have kids running up trying to get into the shot.
My Dad in the 1990’s got some reduced price deal to fly on it - same thing 747 to UK Concorde back. Just incredible what the British and French did in making this plane and operating it.
This is an amazing video. Whoever filmed this made a great job documenting the entire experience. It is truly fascinating to see people pouring wine glasses while travelling two times the speed of sound. It's mindblowing.
This is incredible to watch! Aside from the fact that you could cross the pond in 3 hours 30 minutes, it seems more than than just a flight. The passengers and crew seemed happy to be apart of a human feat. People were taking pictures, the pilot greeted the passengers in flight. Wow this is incredible. I wish I could've taken a ride in the Concorde!
Thank goodness he took this great video. In a strange way, the time before smartphone cameras feels like a lost world. Because there's so much less video of everything. If Concorde had lasted until 2019, there would have been 25 RUclips/IG/TT/whatever videos of people on the last flight.
@@Salmagundiii I think of everything after 2010 as a lost world. In 2010, archival color photography ended with the demise of Kodachrome. A 75 year period of documenting human history on a truly archival medium came to an end 12/30/2010 in Parsons, KS.
Other than the short flight time, what was the cabin experience like? Probably a stupid question, but could you tell that you were traveling much faster than a normal plane?
@@REALcatmom Apparently it was silky smooth because it flies higher than a 747 and encounters less air turbulence. I say apparently because I’ve never been on one but it’s what I’ve been told - kinda makes sense though.
Your captain was Les Brodie. He was a senior Concorde flight instructor and he is in ITVV’s “Concorde” dual DVD documentary when he was still a first officer.
This plane is so fascinating. In an airport where most planes look around the same you have this stealth bomber-esque passenger plane capable of flying at twice the speed of sound. I wish i couldve gotten to fly on one of these...
06:10. What a wonderful shot there. Two iconic jets that had their maiden flights in 1969 within just a few weeks of one another. The Concorde, and the Boeing 747. As of this year, both are discontinued or retired.
I was fortunate to fly with my late husband, who was a pilot in WWII, On the Concorde from N.Y. to London. He surprised me with the trip for my birthday.Valentines Day. Its an experience of rare air travel that we are deprived of now. What a pity. Its an aircraft of rare elegance and speed!
Thoroughly enjoyed this! This is an historical piece of film. No tv documentary about concord captures what you've captured here. And it was all before RUclips and I guess when you filmed it you didn't realise you'd get the opportunity to broadcast it to the world. Great stuff!
When i was working in Battersea...London..I used to wait from my office around 16h or 17h (don't remember the correc time) for the Sound of the Concorde heading to Heathrow. And i remember the last 2 flights too over Heathrow. People were crying ! So sad!❤❤🇨🇵🇨🇵
Concorde was a technological marvel, 1300mph @ 60000ft M2.00. I saw G-BOAG at Museum of Flight in Seattle. When Concorde retired, transatlantic flying to a GIANT step backwards
Exactly! Now the only place you can see it fly is on old videos or flight simulators! A Concorde in a flight simulator gives a more immersive experience in the cockpit and in the cabin.
Thank you so much for sharing this video. This is the closest I will ever be to the experience of flying supersonic, and you captured the experience beautifully. It's so sad that this experience isn't available anymore, and that is why your video is so special and important. ❤
Les Brodie was flying right seat. He came back into the front cabin to visit with passengers. He was a very pleasant and friendly person. Everyone seemed to enjoy his visit.
I was going to ask that question as soon as I saw him. I have the 5 hour video ITVV video both on VHS & DVD he was in with Capt Dave Rawlings ( I think ) , a little bit older there . He retired when they grounded the plane.
I like the way the crew bring the nose and visor up to their cruise / flight position after landing to present the beauty / finishing touches of the aesthetically pleasing shape when parked. I'm so very jealous to not have flown on concorde.
@@Meeowwzterz technically, since the Tu144 was before Concorde, one could say that Concorde was the Tu144 reborn :) but there's a Colorado based company that expects to fly a demonstrator early 2021.
Imagine my surprise and shock when I volunteered to catch a later flight while at the gate for a regular flight, for an upgrade. The upgrade was dinner, hotel room and a window seat on Concorde the next day...! The passengers on my flight clapped as well and what an electrifying day that was for me...I will never forget that flight...
The lounge shots brought back some memories for me when BA was in T4! Shortly before Concorde flights they brought around trollies with premium Champagne and canapees. I remember polishing off a bottle and a half of Comtes de Champagne before one of the Concorde flights I took on my birthday, I spent the flight plastered with a couple of friends, it was great.
Ah brilliant, what a fantastic piece of history, there are so few videos of Concorde from a passenger aspect. She was the Queen of the Skies, a beautiful and graceful bird. Everyone loved her and was impressed by her splendour. Loved the view of Central Park at the end of your video. Lucky you, The Plaza! 😂
You have given an entire generation a treasure to watch and realize how awesome the Concorde was. When I saw this aircraft for the first time in a science book it looked amazing and I always dreamt of flying it some day. Unfortunately all the places I travelled to never needed me to cross the Atlantic. I think this is the only video onboard this beast! Thank you!
Amazing, thank you. When you showed us the deep blue sky, I was reminded of seeing the same from the window of a Comet 4 in 1961. But definitely not at Mach 2!
WOW What an incredible and historic and rare video Thank you for filming this there is hardly any video footage shot from inside Concorde taken from a passengers perspective.. My only regret is I was never lucky enought to fly on her but this video makes watching it worthwhile. Its truly sad she is gone from the skies but her memory lives on with this video . Thank you!
To see what London Heathrow has become since the Concorde is amazing.. and if your wondering.. yes.. the Concorde Room is still there 20 years on.. but obviously it has been turned into a first class lounge
I enjoyed that. Thank you. My ex works as a trolley dolly for BA she would love it. It's so hopelessly charming to be fed and wined and dined at twice the speed of sound! Those Brits huh!? Only problem was the cost of it.....But hey that is history and I am not being funny but my Pa was aircrew on Sunderland flying boats - Concorde was a work of art.
Concord was loud and a 'gas guzzler', but I'm sure that they could have improved/ changed the engines to be much more environmentally friendly, especially with modern technology! Such a shame that she was discontinued 😔 Our memories of seeing her from Greenwich Park are irreplaceable!
Absolutely outstanding video 👏 what an experience, you captured absolutely everything all us plane enthusiasts will never experience, but made is feel like we where on the flight! Hope you are keeping well 21 years later 👏☘️
what a really awesome video. I never flew on her but I got to see her take off from Pearson Airport in Toronto, Ontario a couple of times. I could not believe how loud she was on takeoff. I used to sit in the old McDonald Douglas parking lot which was right beside runway 24 right I believe. Where I would park was only about maybe 200 feet from the start of the runway so very close. I had a small plastic elephant hanging from my rear view mirror that a friend gave me. The sound on takeoff was so loud that even with the windows rolled up the string would vibrate back and forth but there would be people including parents holding small children standing at the fence watching her takeoff and no hearing protection for the little ones ears.
Was going deep into a desk a few days ago and found a grey leather folio they used to give to Concorde fliers. Brought back memories of supersonic travel to London. Great experience going Mach 2. Included was a limo to JFK and into London proper.
I live about 20 minutes from Dulles, and we could hear the Concorde take off three times a week if we were outside. Whenever we heard it, we would go out on our deck and watch it fly over our house. Sigh!
As a kid I went to see Concorde 002 at the Fleet Air Arm Museum in Yeovilton, I was in awe of the sheer scale of the aircraft. Unfortunately if I remember correctly they had kept the seating behind glass. It must have been an awesome experience actually getting to travel on one.
They have one in Manchester airport viewing park. (G-BOAC). I went on the guided tour ... very interesting! Got to sit in the pilots seat and in the cabin for the history talk. Well worth the visit.
Thank you to whoeever recorded this. Watching it pull up to the gate, how I wish I could've been able to enjoy just 1 flight in this magnificent plane😢
Hola Concorde, buenas noches. Que lindo viaje en esta extraodinaria máquina nos regalo tu video. Me alegro mucho que lo hayas podido reslizar. Sinninguna duda un recuerdo que te quedara grabado para toda tu vida. Muchas gracias por registrarlo todo y compartirlo con todos nosotros. Muy amable. Gracias.
@@mennoknight78 I always think about that, the war made everyone work and create at the top of their capacities, we will not ever have a time like that one again.
Had a wonderful day trip to Cairo from Heathrow on this beauty ❤ Had the privilege of being invited into the cockpit for take off back to London! There was no experience like it. 🤩
Thank you for this video. Its my dream to fly on one of these. I was only a kid and my parents didn't take me to fly on the concorde. However I used to see these airplanes from our garden, its a majestic bird.

Thanks sooo much for sharing, what an awesome experience, watching those speed gauges tick over is mind blowing, and when the captain lit the afterburners on takeoff I could almost feel the power.

As that salmon was being consumed, the aircraft was nearing the velocity of a .30 caliber bullet fired from an M1 Carbine......1,300mph....1,906fps.....21.6 miles every minute. I don't see how those things held together travelling that fast for that length of time. Even a fighter jet like an F-15 can only reach past Mach 2 for limited periods. The Concorde could maintain that speed for a couple hours.
That's Andy Lack at 21:45- President of NBC at the time. He would eventually leave and come back to the network, and made the call on not firing Brian Williams in 2015.
I somehow thought the cabin would be quieter after Mach 1 but it still seems very loud. Used to hear and see concorde over the Bristol Channel then hear the sonic boom as it went out to sea.
I am impressed he filmed all the way from the terminal , like RUclips vloggers do today. I wish more people from the video camcorder days could have shot more footage than they did.

The cabin crew were just looking after their passengers as if this was a normal flight, and not Mach2 flying so high!🎉
Well, they did strip down naked and run up and down the aisle briefly as we transitioned to Mach I, but they asked us not to take pictures.
As that salmon was being consumed, the aircraft was nearing the velocity of a .30 caliber bullet fired from an M1 Carbine......1,300mph....1,906fps.....21.6 miles every minute.

I never got to fly the Concorde but it’s still kind of ”cool” to imagine that I was born before it was retired
Seen the inside of the one on Intrepid in NYC. Makes one truly proud to be British. 🏴🏴🏴🇬🇧
I remember seeing Concorde flying over my school every day.
mach 2 and your champagne glass won't even bubble. ....amazing!
I did once...the most beautiful day of my entire life!
