Concorde passengers joined mile high club
Two Concorde passengers are believed to have joined the mile high club only feet away from the airline''s boss.
The Spanish couple claim they had sex as they sat together covered by a blanket.
A stewardess tipped off BA''s chief executive Rod Eddington, 53, who was sitting three rows behind the lovers.
But the Sun reports he smiled and said: Let them enjoy themselves!
A fellow passenger said: The couple tried to be discreet but the cabin crew soon knew what was going on. Concorde is quite small inside, so it was hard not to notice.
A BA spokesman said: We certainly want the last few months of Concorde to be a celebration - but this pair celebrated a bit more than we expected.
We only hope that the earth moved for them at twice the speed of sound.
The drama on flight BA001 came midway into the three-and-a-half-hour trip from London to New York. The couple had flown in from Madrid to catch the plane.
