This fully revised edition of The Concorde Story, is a complete
history of Concorde, seen through the eyes of former Concorde pilot
Christopher Orlebar. This new edition includes the after-story of
the aircraft, including a list of where surviving Concorde Aircraft
can be viewed around the world. Drawing on his own experience, the
author reveals what it was like to be a Concorde pilot, and gives
us a unique pilot's-eye-view of a typical transatlantic flight,
including details of the training involved and life on the flight
deck. It is from the privileged perspective of an insider that
Christopher Orlebar describes Concorde's 'Grand Finale' and final
flight to Filton, reflecting on the history and achievement of
Concorde and those who worked on her.
