not normally an aviation buff, but must admit the sight of concordes stacked up over heathrow airport on their last flights brought a lump to my throat & a tear to my eye. :(

I quite like 'ol Richard Branson he has built his empire of business from nothing and he must put alot of time into it. At the end of the day when the hard work and time pays off, hats off to the man. ;)
