Who's in Concorde's 'high club'?

<div class="section1"><div class="Normal">NEW YORK: The Concorde crew will not be drawn. Their lips are sealed. No one will reveal how many passengers may have made love at twice the speed of sound.<br /><br />"One of the things we offer in British Airways is discretion," veteran Concorde pilot Mike Bannister said on Thursday when asked if anybody had ever been tempted to join the "11-Mile High Club" aboard the needle-nosed jet.<br /><br />"We have had many, many great people on the aircraft and we have been very, very careful to maintain their secrets -- whatever they might be," he told Reuters in New York on the eve of the plane''s last commercial flight, back to London.<br /><br />Flying close to the edge of space at more than 1,250 mph, Concorde is in a league of its own when compared with the lower altitudes of lust known as the "mile high club".<br /><br />To the "11 mile high club" belongs the ultimate jet set -- rock stars, Hollywood sirens, business executives and anyone else rich enough to spend over 6,500 pounds on a return flight across the Atlantic.<br /><br />Concorde, with a body less than three metres wide, has cramped toilets just like more pedestrian planes.But, though the Concorde crew''s lips are sealed, a recent newspaper account of the sexy needle-nosed jet''s last days in the air reveal that passengers may be less restrained.<br /><br />A correspondent from <span style="" font-style:="" italic="">The Times</span> of London wrote after a supersonic journey last week that an Australian couple decided to go to the toilet together and emerged with a grin.</div> </div>
