BlankFor sir Barry
Bilbo
Speedbird is the call sign for British Air. Listen to this when you have
about 15 mins. to spare. Should be no problem for you retirees!
Recording was made on October 24th, 2003
This 1.4 Megabyte, twelve minute and sixteen second audio file has the
aircraft/controller conversations of the last landings made by three
Concordes. They discuss timing the arrivals with controllers so as to have
the three Concordes land with 2.5 minute spacing at London's Heathrow
Airport. The first couple of minutes you can hear only the aircraft as
they are talking to the center. As the aircraft switch over to Heathrow's
frequencies, you can hear both sides of the conversations. The beep tones
come from the scanner receiver as channels are changed to follow the
aircraft. This recording was made by a scanner enthusiast located near the
airport. You will hear "Speedbird Concorde 2" most of the time.

Hi Moe,
Glad to see that you and Linn got back safely and that you had an enjoyable stay
in the UK.
Elaine & I really enjoyed being with you both, and thoroughly enjoyed your
company.
Did you find out what the problem was with your Cell phone?
Very Best Regards,
Barry

| Dear Fellow Commander Drivers:
|
| My wife, Linn, and I just returned from the U.K., where we had the great good
| fortune to meet up with the Collmans (Barry and Elaine). They treated us to
| lunch at a local English Pub.
|
| Linn and I both wish to thank them very much. Also, all of we members should
| be very thankful for Barry's hard work and dedication to keeping up with the
| Commanders and their history.
|
| Barry advises that the book is "still a little ways off."
|
| Best wishes,
|
| Moe and Linn

Hi Keith,
As usual, my grateful thanks for the 'roving report'. I know I've said it
before, but I'll say it again! These reports are ALWAYS useful, as they confirm
whether a Commander is still active, or not. It also confirms any 'foreign'
registration marks are still in use. It is so difficult to get that kind of data
from anywhere outside the USA.
XA-TMW I have had with Taxi Aereo De Morelia SAdeCV., in Morelia, State of
Michoacan since 12Jan99. The aircraft has been in Mexico since new, but not
always as XA-TMW. It was originally XB-NAU Cementos Mexicanos. That's rather
fitting, as we now have 'concrete' evidence that it is still around!
I'm not sure where Zihuateneo is in relation to Morelia, but a trawl through my
atlas later on may help.
The 690B has been in Mexico in various marks since November 1987. It was
originally new in South Africa as ZS-JRD, returned to the USA in December 1984,
then to Mexico.
Thanks again Keith!
Kindest Regards,
Barry

| Hello all -- and especially to Sir Barry for who this is for.
|
| Was just crisscrossing Mexico for 3 days and came across 2 Commanders.
|
| In MMZH -- Zihuateneo -- I parked next to a very handsome AC-500-U.
| Registration XA-TMW, s/n 1668-17. It had a canvass cover on the cabin from
the
| leading edge of the wing forward, so couldn't see inside.
|
| This is a very well kept -U. I did make out the Chamberlain nose under that
| cover, but that's the only mod I could spot.
|
| Next, (sadly) was in MMPR -- Puerto Vallarta -- parked in Aerotron's hangar,
| as she appears to have been for a very long time. XB-GDS, a 690B, s/n 11371.
| Has winglettes, but no left engine. I understand the owner comes out,
| cleans it and is keeping the openings plugged up -- but I'd guess they took
the
| engine off for unscheduled maintenance and were overwhelmed by the cost??!?
|
| That's all from this trip.
|
| Wing Commander Gordon
