Decided to take a flight in the Concorde.   I was not expecting to take as many shots as i did but there is just to many photo ops when flying this beautiful bird.

Just after pushback.  I don't like the way the sky looks.

7 AM taxi to runway 31L.  I have a feeling that this is going to be an interesting flight.

Cleared for takeoff.

Climbing into the storm.  Very strong headwind

Finaly above the storm.  Turning for Paris.

Leveled off at 28000 feet for subsonic cruise.  Great sunrise


Scroll down for more.

Leveled off at 50500 feet at mach 2.02

Back down to 28000 feet.  About 500 miles out.

Decending for final.  This looks like an interesting aproch.

ATC messed up and had me lining up for the runway just below.  Its not even the right airport.

Making final preps for landing.


Scroll down for the rest of the pics.

On final just before touchdown.

The back wheels just touched.

Finaly managed to slow down exiting the runway.

Shot from the tower as I was taxiing to the gate

Parked at gate F-96 after a very long an flawless flight.  Made it just in time.  The engines were shut down with only 100 kgs of fuel left.

interesting pics,but the quality... :-/

i know the quality is pathetic.   ive tryed every thing i can to get the to clear up.  I dont have photoshop or realy any other program to edit them.  :(  

can someone recammend a program that i can download for free???

Nice job...the second to last pic is awesome!

great pics

What version of FS is that?

can someone recammend a program that i can download for free???

try "irfan view", a nice,free ,photoshop-like program.

Mike   im useing FS2002 Pro.  The strange thing is that all of the sliders are set to minimum except aircraft quality is set at medium.  some how i still get fairly good graphics.

i wish i could have better graphics than what i get but im running a 350 mghz  Aptiva IBM.  im working on upgrading it but its taking some time.

and SE thanks for the info.

Nice pics mate

I like the pics man.  :)

thanks for all of the compliments   i downloaded that Infraview photo shop   so hopefully my next pics will be clearer.

this may be my last concorde flight for awhile because im going to be flying for Continentals VA    ill try to post some shots of my flights every now and then.  

hopefully ill get this computer upgraded soon so i can download some of the meljet aircraft.  and make the pic quality even better.

Will be lookiing forward to it

is it Fs2000?
