To be clear you would have been utterly welcome at Qantas. No doubt you would have been an asset to the company and been committed to the absolute rule of safety as a pilot in command. However, to our detriment you went on to fly the greatest aircraft ever to fly. To be clear, there are no pilots anywhere, who have spent more time above mach 1. None. We talk now of "super cruise". The F35 can super cruise above mach 1 without after burner as if this is a milestone of achievement. Concorde did it every day, with 100 pax and champagne, at Mach 2, for years. No other aircraft has come close. Not the SR 71 jocks, not the F15 pilots, not the Mig 25 pilots, no one... No short bursts to mach 2.5, no super climbs to FL 60 where you burnt 30% of your internal fuel load per minute, no air to air refueling . 3 hours at mach 2... every day, week after week mostly on time, for 25 years. This is /was the greatest achievement in aviation. And the bloody thing was designed with pencil, paper and slide rule. {got one, still use it}. Perspective gentlemen, this was the peak of aviation. It was also not American. Think of where we are now. Boeing,sadly has lost its reputation, airlines are trying to sell taxi rides halfway round the planet, and quality control has been sacrificed for "shareholder value" This story here is a reminder of what is possible not just what is profitable.

Fantastic technological tour-de-force, but a grotesque oil-squandering & CO2 creating indulgence. The same is true to a lesser extent of most leisure flight travel. I suppose the space tourism Musk-style is even worse
@@mshobe Flight Simulator II on C64 checking in here. I still have the 5.25" floppy disks and the original box. And the C64!! Roughly 1 FPS. I logged hundreds of hours on that sim as a child. Also, I work for CAE now :-)
@@jtocwru good! There was really no graphic almost, flew IFR before learning VFR from Chigago to Boston in Cessna 172 vor to vor… then ils… was doing that on the pc version (Microsoft licensed Sub-Logic code) in… 1982. With the poor IBM CGA graphic card. Since I was an Amateur Radio licensed since the age of 12, flying using the VHF instruments (vor, ils) and low frequency none directional beacons (adf) was fun, since I could decode their morse code id by listening to them, and listening to the near by adf with shortwave radios…. AI will change how CAE has been doing their scenarios simulations… for the better
@@VE2FET Bruce Artwick was the man! I moved on from Flight Simulator II on the Commodore 64 to the Microsoft flight sims on PC, and I still vividly remember being probably about 10 years old, and my parents driving me to Barnes & Noble so I could buy MSFS 5.1. This was not long after the already-groundbreaking MSFS 5.0, which brought textures to the flight sim world. Prior to that, it was all boring polygons with boring, solid colors. I remember peeling off the shrinkwrap on the drive home. MSFS 5.1 had fog! FOG! And then BAO's Flight Shop came out, after many, many delays, and people claiming it was nothing but vaporware. But, it did release. And the sky was the limit. So many custom aircraft after that. It was an incredible time for flight simmers.
John is a true professional and an extremely pleasant gentleman. I've been honoured to meet John, Mike Banister and Jock Lowe on numerous occasions over the years. On a side note, the 'Royal' Concorde, G-BOAC was given this name due to several reasons. Firstly it was the aircraft of choice to transport members of the Royal family on official overseas duties. Also, the registration of this particular aircraft reads; Great Britain, British Overseas Airways Corporation. G-BOAC now resides at Manchester Airport MAN/EGCC in the UK. It is housed in a purpose built hanger within the airport visitors centre.
I work for CAE USA. This company is the best I've worked for. I've worked for IBM, Lockheed Martin, Raytheon (Collins Aerospace), BAE, and now CAE. It's beyond reproach. I have zero complaints, and only praise.
As a civil instructor (CIC) for 4 years I had the privilege of shaping young minds and guiding future leaders through a transformative journey. It has been a collection of lifetime experiences that have shaped both myself and those under my tutelage, from teaching the intricacies of aviation to leading outdoor survival exercises, every moment was an opportunity to inspire an empower. Looking back today I am filled with pride for the role I've played in shaping the future of our nation's air leaders. I encourage any parents to join and be part of this organization.
All metal had magnetic signature even current of ocean water because mineral and ion had electromagnetic trail like ship at night left glowing trail in pitch black night
I myself am aware of dangers of weather across the Atlantic and I am very interested in becoming a ferry pilot and like to know minimum hrs to start getting into that as I don't know is part 61 250 hrs commercial pilot certificate is enough as beginner
