TAKING OFF
Concorde
A Cessna can take-off at a speed that a Morris Eight can reach, a 747 lifts at 184mph, but Concorde, history's most insanely brilliant piece of Anglo-French engineering, needed to do 250mph to get airborne. Never mind the fact that only 100 people at a time could experience the 38,000lb of thrust from the four Rolls-Royce/SNECMA Olympus 593s, or that they could bring only 2.5 tonnes of luggage between them: this was the greatest passenger aircraft of all.

Lorry-loads of fun
AND SO ANOTHER classic car season comes to a close. I recently took the XK out to gatecrash the 96 Club gathering in Chesham Place, Belgravia, which is always extremely enjoyable but is just a trundle up the road as part of my Tour de Chelsea.
