You look to the horizont and try to see a small point, like a "fly" ,slowly increasing it's size (don't blink your eye). This little bug grews to the full size fighter, before you have time to inhale and
then it's gone. In that case it took 90deg upwards in front of us with full after burner (and we almost peed in our pants, so much fun) ]]>Jun 5th 2010 6:39PMhttp://www.luxist.com/2010/06/03/concorde-jet-undergoing-22-million-recommission/http://www.luxist.com/2010/06/03/concorde-jet-undergoing-22-million-recommission/Jun 5th 2010 3:49PMhttp://www.luxist.com/2010/06/03/concorde-jet-undergoing-22-million-recommission/http://www.luxist.com/2010/06/03/concorde-jet-undergoing-22-million-recommission/Jun 5th 2010 4:40PMhttp://www.luxist.com/2010/06/03/concorde-jet-undergoing-22-million-recommission/http://www.luxist.com/2010/06/03/concorde-jet-undergoing-22-million-recommission/Jun 5th 2010 4:42PMhttp://www.luxist.com/2010/06/03/concorde-jet-undergoing-22-million-recommission/http://www.luxist.com/2010/06/03/concorde-jet-undergoing-22-million-recommission/Jun 5th 2010 5:04PMhttp://www.luxist.com/2010/06/03/concorde-jet-undergoing-22-million-recommission/http://www.luxist.com/2010/06/03/concorde-jet-undergoing-22-million-recommission/Jun 5th 2010 8:45PMhttp://www.luxist.com/2010/06/03/concorde-jet-undergoing-22-million-recommission/http://www.luxist.com/2010/06/03/concorde-jet-undergoing-22-million-recommission/Jun 5th 2010 4:54PMhttp://www.luxist.com/2010/06/03/concorde-jet-undergoing-22-million-recommission/http://www.luxist.com/2010/06/03/concorde-jet-undergoing-22-million-recommission/Jun 5th 2010 5:02PMhttp://www.luxist.com/2010/06/03/concorde-jet-undergoing-22-million-recommission/http://www.luxist.com/2010/06/03/concorde-jet-undergoing-22-million-recommission/Jun 5th 2010 5:04PMhttp://www.luxist.com/2010/06/03/concorde-jet-undergoing-22-million-recommission/http://www.luxist.com/2010/06/03/concorde-jet-undergoing-22-million-recommission/
Just the musings of an old (and getting older) Seattleite

I'm sure it would be in a museum today and that would be something.
It'd be interested to really know if the GE4 engine program really did die with the SST or whether it was covertly produced for a Black aircraft program.
I'm thinking about the rumored "Blackstar" aircraft. GE also made the engines in the experimental North American XB-70 mach 3 capable supersonic bomber and quite a number of engines were actually made.
Makes you wonder where those engines ended up. ]]>Jun 5th 2010 8:02PMhttp://www.luxist.com/2010/06/03/concorde-jet-undergoing-22-million-recommission/http://www.luxist.com/2010/06/03/concorde-jet-undergoing-22-million-recommission/Jun 5th 2010 7:59PM
