The Concorde SST is now retired, and no longer flying.

There was only one time in history that two Concordes (one from British Airways, and one from Air France) landed at this airport on parallel runways at the same time.

The question....where did this occur, and what was the reason, and who sponsored it?

Ten Famous Amos chocolate chip cookies for the right answers. LOL!

Who needs sunshine when you have Golden Retrievers?

At 17:57 on Wednesday 22 October 2003, two Concordes landed simultaneously at Heathrow.

I am humbled....sorry, but I was under the impression that the only time an Air France and British Airways Concordes landed simultaniously was at Orlando International Airport when Walt Disney's Epcot opened (way back when)...they were bringing the keys for the British and French pavillions at the grand opening of EPCOT at Disney. My bad, thought that was the only time the two concordes from BA and Air France got together.....but very good answer...lol!

You know what Gary? I gave the wrong answer anyways. At Heathrow it was the last hurrah flight and a British Airways. There was no Air France. Oooops!
