Event Short Description

Former BA Chief Concorde Pilot Mike Bannister remembers the world’s only supersonic airliner.

Event Information

Fasten your seatbelt alongside ‘Captain Concorde’ Mike Bannister as he shares his unrivalled insight into the world’s only supersonic airliner – on a return trip to Graffham by popular demand.

Mike knows Concorde better than anyone – from being appointed its youngest first officer shortly after it started flying in 1977 to commanding its final scheduled flight as British Airways’ Chief Concorde Pilot 26 years later. Since then, he’s become the best-selling author of the definitive Concorde book – and an in-demand and entertaining speaker.

At this relaxed and fun fund-raising event, he will give his unique perspective on an icon that enabled Royalty, celebs, moguls and everyman to sip Champagne and dine on lobster while travelling faster than a rifle bullet, at almost 25 miles a minute. He’ll share pictures and videos from his personal library – touching also on the Brooklands Aviation and Motoring Museum in Surrey, where the concept of Concorde first took off.
