Concorde is the most beautiful piece of aeroengineering ever created. It doesn’t look bad from any angle. As a matter of opinion, it looks beautiful from every angle. It has served the UK proudly, quite rightly being classed as the perfect flag carrier for Britain. Beautifully designed, beautifully maintained and beautifully flown for over two decades, it is a masterpiece. It rightly deserves to win this important competition.

The iconic map of the London Underground is one of the most recognised publications around the world. It signifies simplicity of design with perfect function. It is comfortingly familiar to regular viewers while still welcomingly understandable to strangers. It rightly deserves to win this important competition.

I voted for the Spit.

Cant argue with that! 😀

I voted for the Map. Its is a brilliant piece of simplification from a very complicated original. Portrays the information in a very easy to read manner and is the standard bearer for similar designs worldwide. In short, it does exactly what it says on the tin!

This is not to denegrate the Concorde and Spitfire, both superb designs in their own right, but the underground map is still doing today what it did when it was first published.

Any “issues” were never going to stop her flying this season. We would be able to hear this from the horses mouth. However that member has been banned.

I have been reliably informed by a former Colleague that it is indeed Reg Hallam.

Quite possibly, I was on the Western (AAM) side of it.

They used to have a policy at the RAM that before a replica could take its place in the museum that it had to fly. I seem to remember shots of the 1 1/2 Strutter flying at Lands End.
