Travel Poster Concorde Bristol Clifton Bridge Final Fly Past Daily Mail. Original travel poster commemorating the final fly-past of Concorde over Bristol's Clifton Suspension Bridge, featuring a photograph of the supersonic aircraft flying above the bridge with crowds admiring it from below. The caption below the image reads - Bridging the centuries: In a final, majestic swoop, Concorde flies low over Bristol's Clifton Suspension Bridge. The supersonic aircraft was making its last flight, home to Filton, where it first took to the skies in 1969. Framed against Isambard Kingdom Brunel's bridge, Concorde for one glorious moment united British engineering triumphs of the 19th and 20th centuries - both brilliant, both daring and both so beautiful. Concorde is a retired Anglo-French supersonic airliner jointly developed and manufactured by Sud Aviation (Aerospatiale) and the British Aircraft Corporation between 1965 and 1979, with the first flight in 1969 and the last flight as pictured in 2003. Horizontal. Good condition, creasing, tears. Country of issue: UK, designer: Unknown, size (cm): 60x84, year of printing: 2003.
