24/10 LOT76- Concorde Circuit Board 2 & Brian Trubshaw signed COA. British Airways Concorde 002 printed circuit board Version 1. This circuit board was one of the very instruments that were fitted to Concorde 002 to make that historical flight. This circuit board was authenticated by Brian Trubshaw to be genuine and originate from flight research systems installed on Concorde prototype 002 GBSST between 1969/1972 as part of the civil supersonic flight research programme undertaken between the British Aircraft Corporation and Aerospatiale France. Brian has personally signed a Certificate of Authenticity to accompany this circuit board. This is a genuine autograph/signature by Brian Trubshaw and not a printed copy, this signature alone is very unique and has to be just as collectable as this circuit board. Concorde 002 made her first UK test flight on 9th April 1969 by BACs' chief test pilot Brian Trubshaw; Brian flew Concorde 002 from Filton to Fairford. Brian Trubshaw was the first British pilot to fly Concorde in April 1969. Trubshaw, who sadly passed away on 25 March 2001, shot to fame when he first flew Concorde in April 1969 on a flight from Filton to its Test base at RAF Fairford. He emerged from Concorde 002's then futuristic cockpit with the words: 'it was wizard a cool, calm and collected operation.’ The measurements of the circuit board are approximately 11.5 inches x 4.25 inches.

Jean Batten Unique piece of aviation and Concorde signed memorabilia. This is a 1973 typed and hand signed letter by Jean Batten (1909-1982). Batten was a New Zealand aviator and the best known New Zealander of the 1930s. She made a number of record breaking solo flights and in 1936 made the first ever solo flight from England to New Zealand. This letter, written in 1973 when Batten lived in Tenerife, was sent to a Squadron Leader Hitchings DFC in Kent, England. Here are a couple of fascinating passages from the letter: “...you may like to know of an association called Confidence in Concorde project formed earlier this year, to enable all friends of Concorde to unite and speak with one powerful voice to refute the rumours and wildly inaccurate statements being circulated on both sides of the Atlantic, by the anti-Concorde group” “...after the TU144 crash, they switched from the environmental angle to circulating rumours about a new form of metal fatigue” “...If you would care to join Confidence in Concorde project, will you let me know and I will send the booklet of aims, car-sticker, membership application form... you may like to know that among those who have joined recently are, Lord Balfour of Inchrye, Sir Peter Masefield and Air Commodore Wheeler”. A truly wonderful letter, written on two sides of one page, with original mailing envelope from Batten s home in Tenerife. You can own this insight into Concorde s development written by an aviation legend Good condition
