AND FINALLY: The French celebrate Concorde
To complement the 2019 Concorde collection, Aero-Design launched a model of its iconic Mach 2 wristband on (naturally) 2 March or, if you prefer, Mach 2.
First there were the Patrouille de France, French Air Force, Air France 747, and Latécoère models, and then the latest Moana model, created to support Te Mana O Te Moana, a Polynesian association. Now comes the Mach 2 Concorde version, which bears its name well.
The Mach 2 range of wristbands is inspired by aviation cables, links between the flight controls and the aeroplane rudders. The clasp is a reproduction of aviation electrical contacts.
The Mach 2 Concorde model displays the 50th anniversary logo designed by Aeroscopia. We are not sure if it is available on BA long-haul flights, or, for that matter, on Air France.
