  I was selected by my group of fuelers at Dallas Fort Worth Airport in Texas to be the one that fueled the very last Concorde to fly out of there. I fueled her and went into the cockpit to verify my numbers with the crew "they were so nice to me". It's a memory I will remember for the rest of my life. And a story I tell when the opportunity presents itself. The honor was mine....

  The accident in Paris in 2000 wasn’t even really Concorde’s fault. The piece of metal that it hit was really big and set off the whole sequence. The Concorde didn’t fail mechanically or because of pilot error. It’s was basically a freak accident

  I will never forget the day Concorde visited South Africa. As a youngster, together with a school friend, we saw it fly by over our flats in Alberton, fairly low, and very loud, on it's way to land at Jan Smuts Airport (Now OR. Tambo)

  The island of Newfoundland played an important role in the development of the Concorde. Many of the early test flights took off from Gander, Newfoundland. That's about as close as I ever got to this magnificent bird.

  I can't believe that in this fast paced, instant gratification world there isn't room for the Concorde!!! In the grand scheme it had a stellar safety record. She was a beauty!!

  I wish I had been able to be part of this incredible, hopeful and inspiring science project. I will never fly in a Concorde, except in my dreams.

  Good production, thanks.  These were some of the best views of Concorde I've ever seen!  No mention however of the US company Boom in trying to bring supersonic air travel back...

  The Concorde was really a masterpiece...and it was reliable if u look of how many they build and yet only one crashed and it was because of a piece of metal from another airplane hit the tire and fly up and hit underneath the fueltank...
