Preorder the definitive account of the rise and fall of the iconic
Concorde plane from British Airways' former Chief Concorde Pilot.
THE WORLD'S GREATEST AIRCRAFT Concorde is the most beautiful,
iconic and distinctive flying machine ever to grace the skies. For
over a quarter of a century she was the world's only successful
supersonic airliner, carrying passengers in comfort and style at
speeds faster than a rifle bullet - and at heights that provided a
glimpse of the edge of space. CONCORDE'S MOST EXPERIENCED PILOT
Mike Bannister knew he wanted to be a pilot from the age of seven.
As Chief Concorde Pilot for British Airways - having qualified to
fly the aircraft at the age of only twenty-eight - he went on to
spend more time flying faster than the speed of sound than anyone
else in history, displaying Concorde with the Red Arrows over
London, investigating the cause of the tragic Paris crash and
successfully restoring the aircraft's reputation in the trial that
followed, and, finally, landing her back at Heathrow at the end of
her last scheduled flight in October 2003. THE DEFINITIVE STORY
Mike Bannister shares the inside story of this unique and
awe-inspiring aircraft for the first time, including his role in
the investigation to uncover what really happened when Concorde
fell to earth on 25th July 2000. Loved and missed like no other
aeroplane, Concorde is part celebration, part history, part
detective story and part courtroom drama, a thrilling, revelatory,
intimate and insightful personal account by the man who knew her
best.
