A 12X8 PHOTO PERSONALLY HAND SIGNED BY CHIEF CONCORDE PILOT
CAPTAIN BRIAN WALPOLE, OBE, FRAeS.
The
career of Captain Brian Walpole is second to none in the history of
post-war aviation. Not only did he fly the world's only supersonic jet
airliner for twelve years, he commanded the fleet and also ran its
commercial operations as General Manager Concorde.
In
1977, he commanded the Concorde, which flew the Queen from Barbados to
London and the first supersonic commercial service from London to New
York.
Captain Walpole was promoted to General Manager of the British
Airways Concorde Division, continuing once more to fly as a fully
operational Concorde commander. His achievements in aviation were again
recognised in 1983 when he was elected a Fellow of the Royal
Aeronautical Societ, then in 1988 he became an Officer in the Order of the British Empire in The Queen's Birthday Honours List.
