BETWEEN May 18 and 26, airline experts from the United States, Australia, India, the Middle East, France and Great Britain gathered at Bristol and later at Toulouse in France to hear details of the progress which had been made with the Concorde supersonic airliner. This was the first time that representatives of the Concorde customer airlines had received this type of ‘on-the-spot’ technical presentation from British Aircraft Corporation, Sud-Aviation, Bristol Siddeley Engines and S.N.E.C.M.A., and the whole venture has been described as highly successful. Not only did the customer airlines benefit from seeing, at the various plants, just exactly how the Concorde project is progressing, but they were also able to discuss in detail all engineering aspects of the aircraft with senior engineers of the Anglo-French consortium. The manufacturers were also able to learn from the customers their views on particular aspects of the Concorde.
