EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this photo print, we see businessman Mr Thomas Barnes of Lily Avenue, Jesmond, Newcastle, who was the fortunate winner of an Evening Chronicle competition. The year is 1982, and on the 9th of August, Mr Barnes experienced a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to fly on Concorde from his hometown. Captured in this image is pure delight and enjoyment radiating from Mr Barnes' face as he boards the iconic supersonic airliner. His eyes sparkle with excitement as he realizes that he is about to embark on an extraordinary journey through aerospace history. This photograph encapsulates both luck and celebration. As one mature man stands alone before the aircraft's entrance, it symbolizes not only his personal triumph but also represents all those who dreamt of soaring through the skies at unimaginable speeds. Mr Barnes' victory in this highly competitive contest made him one among a select group of passengers chosen for this exclusive experience. This image serves as a testament to his achievement and captures the joyous spirit shared by all those fortunate enough to be part of this remarkable flight. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we are reminded of an era when flying aboard Concorde was synonymous with luxury and prestige. It evokes nostalgia for a time when aviation pushed boundaries and ignited imaginations worldwide.
