Great shot of Concorde over the bridge, Jim, but pity he wasn't able to 
catch its shadow on the ground. Of course, nowadays, seeing as it's CNN, 
there'd be people shouting "Fake news!!" and complaining that it had 
been photoshopped in because there's no shadow to be seen.

A wonderful plane, but living in Ireland, I only saw it taking off in 
London and, another time, missed its landing in Paris as we had to board 
another flight out. That time, I did see it taxiing past though. A 
friend of mine flew on it and showed me his souvenir pen. I envied that pen.
