Concorde Film Tribute with Special Discount for Air Britain Members
Concorde – First to Last is the first complete film history of the iconic supersonic airliner and we have arranged a special 20% discount for Air Britain members.
The 150-minute film is available as a DVD or HD stream from www.bellevuefilms.co.uk and you just have to enter the code, AB24, at check-out to qualify for the special price of £12.
Demand for this fascinating film is expected to be high, so please allow around one week for delivery of the stream version and up to three weeks for delivery of the DVD.
British Airways Chief Concorde Pilot Mike Bannister, who flew her last scheduled flight in October, 2003, says:” First To Last is a love story for Concorde that draws together the whole history of this sensational and unique aircraft.”
The film was sponsored by ten members of the Bristol Aero Collection Trust, including Sir George White, great grandson of the Bristol Aeroplane Company’s founder, and uses rare archive footage to chronicle this fascinating story as never before.
Background
Test pilots Godfrey Auty and Brian Trubshaw talk of pushing the limits of speed to far exceed the sound barrier and pave the way for an aircraft that shrank the globe and turned heads wherever she flew.
Behind the scenes in the Filton and Patchway factories, the designers of the airframe and the engine reveal their secrets and the shopfloor workers tell of their pride in helping to make this Anglo-French project a reality.
The first flights from Toulouse and Bristol in 1969 are shown as is the final flight on November 26, 2003, when Concorde Alpha Foxtrot returned to her birthplace at Filton.
British Airways Captain Les Brodie, who was at the controls, tells of his emotions as he made a farewell flypast over the North Somerset coast and the Clifton Suspension Bridge to land in front of a crowd of thousands.
And Concorde Alpha Foxtrot is seen in the purpose-built hangar, where she has become the star attraction in the Aerospace Bristol museum.
There is also the chance to watch a British Airways journey from Heathrow to New York on the flight deck of Concorde Alpha Foxtrot with Captain Chris Norris.
A further 90 minutes of bonus extras include Concorde Around The World, a continent-to-continent account of a never-to-be-repeated journey, and a flight deck tour of Concorde Alpha Charlie in Manchester.
