In the mid 1970s I had the opportunity to spend an hour onboard a 
Concorde that was parked on the ground at an airport. It was cramped and 
dark, teasing a sense of claustrophobia. I could not stand up in the 
passenger compartment (I was at the time 193cm/6’4” tall). I remember 
thinking that I would probably never be in enough of a hurry to get 
across the ocean that I would want to fly on one of those.
