Brilliant golf course, great video, but please can most English folk stop pronouncing Pafos with a "th" it's a "f" no need, sorry but it winds me up 😂😂
Hi, few questions if you don’t mind? How far from the beach? Do you have to pay extra for the a la carte restaurant on the all inclusive deal? If it’s included how many nights are you allowed per week? Is the air con included? Lastly what channels can you get on the TV? Thank you so much
Hey! The hotel is right by the beach, just a short walk. We didn't have to pay for the a la carte as it was part of the all-inclusive, though limited on how many visits. Can't remember how many. Our room had air con and to be honest, didn't really watch the telly, think it had the usual mix of the international channels.
theft 😡😡😡. theft I am a tourist, and I have traveled to Georgia several times, but my money was stolen in the radison hotel room safe box , and the hotel does not give me any answer, and I have taken a lawyer
Ahh, I remember it well. I was on the same flight about 2 weeks earlier. It wasn't Mike but very similar commentary and that extraordinary experience of arriving in New York earlier than I left London, having had a delightful meal, a few glasses of bubbly and a sensational flight..... But I had a better view of events than afforded us by this video! Why so much of the window & not the view!? Also very noticeable the video was out of sync with the commentary.
So sad it was retired. It was such a beauty. wish I could've ridden one of these, except I was born 5 years later. I would've flown it if I got the chance
It was tight, Hot and cramped - however it did get you to or from LHR in under 3.5 hours Flew on it (3) times & the atmosphere aboard was upbeat , ppl actually smiled, and the champagne from lounge to landing flowed like water. I drank a bottle myself & had one hell of a headache but it was worth it - food was amazing Caviar and lobster-fish cakes , dessert & cheese- fruit & port and sterling silver parting gifts …
@@karendeangelis1358 No, there was no real sense of speed other than on takeoff & landing - we were too high to have any reference for speed. That's why I was determined to fly her to a distant destination (not just a circuit of the Bay of Biscay) so I could get the sense of speed from the time-travel effect. I can't say I even felt the nudge in the back when they re-lit the burners to accelerate to supersonic speed. It was a beautifully smooth ride & an amazing experience - the light, the curvature of the earth, the height & speed indicators, the roar, the privilege.....
No flight deck visits by 2003 of course. Our flight (also in AD) was in 1999 and I was lucky enough to be in the flight deck jump seat for the entire hour and a half supersonic flight.
Captain of this flight Mike Bannister has a book published called Concorde. Its a good read with a mixture of sad and in depth details about the Air France Concorde crash and some humour as when they invited an US Airforce pilot onto the deck and invited him to sit in the co pilots seat to fly the plane when she was at supersonic speed. On arriving in England they arranged to meet him in a bar and it turned out that he had flown SR71's. Bannister pointed out that the SR71 flew at Mach 3.5 and the aircrew had to wear what were essentially space suits while the crew on the Concorde were in shirt sleeves and the passengers dined well and drank champagne. 😆
goes 2MACH, so 2400 kmph with this velocity you get about 650 meter per second. A kilometer less than 2 seconds!! its realy extraordinery for 2003! Congratullations concorde! these aircrafts are the future!
When the capt is talking about Mach 2 the camera keeps cutting to different positions, either you had more than camera recording at the same time or the audio has been redubbed over the shots. I bet you had to be loaded to fly on Concorde, but would loved to have flown on it but sadly the ticket cost would've been out of my reach, today I probably could afford it but sadly it aint in service anymore. I can't believe none of the other passengers are filming or taking photos, I guess these were regular passengers, to them it was probably just another plane lol.
At the end of the Concorde era, around this time, they did short "promotional" flights at a more "normal" price. Not reaching MACH 2, and no amenities, but enough to feel the experience. Source: My wife once flew from Barcelona to Paris in one. (Just a one day experience, one way with a normal plane, and the other way with the Concorde)
Full fare oneway was about £3500.00. You could use FFflyer miles or buy a tkt starting in one of the cheaper European destinations to greatly reduce the cost. There were many charter flights over the yrs. It sas very easy yo fly her should you have wanted too.👍
