Today, 21 Jan 1986, is the 10th anniversary of the first scheduled
commercial route flight by Concorde, London to Bahrain.  It may
not be an economic success (though it is making money on a direct
operating basis - BA wish they had more), but it is an exciting
bird, which will not be challenged for at least another decade,
possibly not until the next millenium.
