Concorde’s Birthday
Concorde, the world’s fastest and most graceful passenger plane, will soon be 40 years old. It first flew on 2 March 1969, from Toulouse in France.
Concorde was developed by both France and Britain. From 1956 these two countries had a dream of a supersonic passenger plane. In 1962 they started to work together on the project. The plane cost over 1.5 billion pounds to develop. It is the most tested plane in the history of aviation. It was given over 5,000 hours of testing.
Concorde flies at twice the speed of sound. This means that it takes only 3 hours 25 minutes to fly between London and New York, compared with 7-8 hours in other passenger jets. Because of the five-hour time difference between the USA and Britain, it is possible to travel west on Concorde and arrive in New York before you leave London! You can catch the 10.30am flight from London, Heathrow and start work in New York an hour earlier!
Concorde is much used by business people and film stars. But its oldest passenger was Mrs Ethel Lee from Leicestershire in England. She was 99 years old when she took off from Heathrow on 24 February 1985.
Each Concorde is built at a cost of 55 million pounds. Twenty have been built so far. Air France and British Airways own the most. They each have seven planes.
Task 16. Read the text and insert the words in the proper places.
Pilotless Jet
| Hour, crash, jet, again, trees, engines, hurt, finally |

Task 17. Read the text. Fill each gap with one of the following verb forms. Do the exercises following it.
| Approaching, seen, grown, operating, jammed, built, tops, become, shares, jumped |
Flying – then and now
1. My first flight from Paris to Portsmouth in 1959. The pilot arrived late, with the stewardess. He wore a leather coat, old trousers, and wellington boots. The stewardess had holes in her stockings and wore mirrored sunglasses. They both went into the cockpit without a word.
2. When we were (a) ____ the English coast, the stewardess appeared in the cabin. She was still wearing the sunglasses, but her lipstick was smudged. “Southend? Anyone for Southend?” she shouted. The boy in front of me put up his hand. The DC3 suddenly landed. The boy was shown the door and he (b) ____ down onto the grass field, and we took off again. The stewardess went back into the cockpit. I remember thinking at the time that flying wouldn’t always be like this.
3. And I was right. In 30 years, international travel has completely changed, and the world has (c) ____ a global village. Crossing the world is as easy as (sometimes easier than) getting from one side of a city to another. The world of air travel has developed into a huge industry.
4. The airports themselves are remarkable places: Paris’s strange and space-like Charles de Gaulle, or Dallas/Fort Worth with its Texan vastness. There are airports which are almost (d) ____ with the number of arrivals and departures, like Chicago’s O’Hare or Tokyo’s Haneda; and there are deserted airports like Tanzania’s Kilimanjaro, lying beneath the snows of that great mountain, waiting for the tourists who have never arrived.
5. But probably one of the greatest of them all is London’s Heathrow, which (e) ____ the list of both international flights and international passengers. In 1989, it handled 355,000 flights and over 38 million passengers with 57 million items of luggage. It has (f) ____ into a city in its own right, employing 53,000 people full time.
6. Like all great airports, it dates back only to the last days of the Second World War. The first runway was (g) ____ on the flat land near the village of Staines in 1944. It was a place of historic interest. One of the most important Anglo-Saxon temples is buried under Terminal Two, and the village of Heathrow is now under the main car park. The airport has ghosts. A Saxon prince has been (h) ____ near the ponds, where he drowned, and an outlaw rides through the cargo sheds, with a three-cornered hat and a black horse. Heathrow has been (i) ____ as an international airport since 1 January 1946, when a British South American Airways Lancastrian took off into the morning mists on a flight to Buenos Aires. In February 1952, the Queen arrived from Entebbe to set foot on British soil for the first time as monarch.
7. Since those early days, constant building has been necessary to deal with the growth of air traffic and the demands of air travellers. However, Heathrow (j) ____ the same problems as all big airports – too many planes, too many people, and too much crime. It is the centre-point of the great air routes between Europe and North America in one direction, and between Europe and the Gulf, Africa, and Asia in the other. It is alive with all the citizens of this strange world, rich and poor, honest and dishonest. It is the Airport International par excellence.

Coffee, Tea or Talk?
When it comes to “Truth in Advertising”, “Truth in Lending” and “Truth in Consumerism”, I am ready to fight for the right to be informed. But I am ready to fight about the right not to be informed about anything when it comes to “Truth in Flying”.
There are airline pilots who insist on getting on the loudspeaker of their planes and giving the passengers a sightseeing tour: “Well, folks, we’re now flying over Kansas, which you can’t see because of the cloud cover, and pretty soon we’ll be crossing the Mississippi, which just keeps rolling along, etc., etc.”
I thought that was pretty bad, but it’s nothing compared to the pilot who feels his passengers are fascinated with the technical aspects of flying. I was flying around the country on three different airlines, and I learned more about planes than I ever wanted to know.
We were sitting at the gate at La Guardia, when the pilot said: “I guess you folks are wondering what the holdup is. We have a leak in the hydraulic system, and the mechanics are trying to find it. And while we have a backup system, I think I’ll let them fix the leak.”
Ten minutes later: “This is the pilot. Well, it wasn’t a hydraulic leak after all. It seems to be an electric short in the black box. They should be able to repair it. The reason for the delay is that the pilot who flew this plane into La Guardia failed to report the malfunction.”
Fifteen minutes later: “Everything appears to be OK although the real test is when we get into the air. But don’t expect any trouble, so relax and enjoy the flight. I’ll be back to you soon as we’re airborne.”
A few days later, I flew from San Francisco to Chicago. It was a different airline and a different pilot. We were somewhere over Colorado. “Hi, so far we’ve had a very pleasant trip, but planes in the area are reporting heavy storms ahead. Ordinarily, we’d try to fly around the storms, but in this case they seem to be spread over such a wide area that we have to go right through them. It’s going to be a little pumpy, but these planes were built to take it, and could even fly through a tornado if they had to. If you look out the window you can see the lightning and black clouds all around us. You have to expect this kind of weather in the summer in this area. So fasten your seat belts, and maybe you’ll all have something to tell your grandchildren about.”
The next day I had the fun of flying from Chicago to Upper Michigan. The pilot hadn’t given us much information on how he was doing, and I was starting to get a little worried. But as we were making an approach for a landing at Traverse City, he suddenly veered off to the left and gunned his engines. “That was a close one,” he said over the loudspeaker. “Those of you on the right side of the aircraft probably saw the little single-engine plane which decided to land at the same time we did. Apparently the people in the tower were asleep, or maybe they thought we would both enjoy landing on the runway at the same time.”
I’m certain that there must be passengers aboard our airliners who are grateful for all the news they can get on how the pilot of the plane is faring. But I’ve yet to meet one. Most of us still believe that “Truth in Flying” is for the birds.
