‘City officials…tried to stop the arrival [of Concorde]’ - those city officials are likely now dead, having achieved nothing of note in their entire lives and remembered by nobody. Meanwhile, Concorde continues to be marvelled at, talked about in reverential tones and remembered fondly.

I was honored to be a passenger on the flight from T.F. Green (PVD) to JFK that day. It was a highlight of my travel agent career so many years ago. So happy channel 10 captured it . Such a wonderful memory.

SST was never a term regularly used for Concorde. SST was Boeings ill fated attempt at a supersonic aircraft.

"God what a time" / (and place), *NOT SO LONG AGO* when young men & boys still 'dream'pt', built models, & had interest in hobbies, *and were enamored by such things ... and after that: "imagination did the rest". TODAY: (amid a total disinterest in such things), It's some "silly phone" / (or a tablet) that ALL long to have , ... SO: (as young College Engineer's number few), this setting has made a total "about face". Maybe Rush Limbaugh WAS right: "Tattoo removal and texting & cell-phone withdraw clinics, will be the No. 1 professions in the "dumbed-down-society". This was a GREAT-CLIP, and were it to occur TODAY, *I'd be RIGHT-THERE ! "LOL". :- )

Thank you for posting this!! I showed my grandfather this who is Tony DiBiasio, he loved it. He told me all about how he saw the plane come in and he was able to see inside it. He always told me how he was popular and what he did for a living so i searched his name and this popped up I can't believe it. Thanks again

Used to see British Airways fleet on a daily basis landing at London-Heathrow, departure was around 10.15 am and return at 5.15 pm. Sadly, this is no more, and we are worse off for it.

I come from the future in the year 2024 and there is still no supersonic plane equal to or better, as it was Concord. And I'm sure you won't believe me, greetings.-

You obviously didn't see the whole clip or don't know what a marvel the Concorde was. This was the one and only time that the Concorde was in Rhode Island, in New England for that matter. TF Green Airport is not that big of an airport because it is a state airport. The Concorde's mere presence at the airport was a success.

The reasons the reporter In this news footage gave of why the concord had to stop flying varifies all the things I learned about in watching various documentaries & videos explaining why many people didn't like it anymore.
