This compendium of 3 programmes + extras is probably the most
comprehensive and diverse collection of modern day Concorde footage
available anywhere. CONCORDE IN THE 21ST CENTURY - benefits from an
era when flight deck photography was still allowed with views during take
off and landing, air-to-air ‘tracking’ and plenty of runway action. After
examining Concorde’s technology, we join the captain for the trip to New
York where an Air France Concorde lands during a hurricane, whilst
insights into flying Concorde include a a fascinating account of Touch and
Go training from a senior Concorde Captain. The DVD extra is uncut runway
action of the training at Shannon . THE NEW ERA - reviews the
future of the BA Concordes after the horrific Paris crash, the politics,
modifications and the return to service. The action comes from the last
era of regional charters across Britain , test flights for both airlines
and the return to service in November 2001. Around The World - At
Mk2 this has to be the ultimate travel experience. Follow the cameras
aboard a privately chartered Concorde, and from the ground, as this
extraordinary journey takes in America , Canada , Hawaii , Fiji ,
Australia , Guam , Thailand , India , Kenya , Jordan , and Italy . |
