Great vid, @BeachAV8R! Yeah, that approach looks challenging. Luckily that ogee wing givesgave the Concorde decent low-speed handling characteristics. Vref depended on landing weight, of course, but 160 knots wouldn’t be unusual.
Would be fun to try this approach in the Concorde X - I’ll have to see if I can find a Concorde route to use.
