Super-jet Bus To Alexandria,

My Laguiole end gift ATPL ...

In February 2009, with a little ahead, I decided to give myself a gift for my ATPL theory, deciding not to open it until you have spent the last certif. March 31, returning from Brussels where I had to validate the last two certificates, my package was waiting at home.

This is a Laguiole knife in its leather case that also contains a sharpener.


is not any Laguiole. For this limited edition of 2,000 copies, the handle the knife is white, and the blade is made ... in a piece of Concorde, bought at auction by the manufacturer of the knife.

Once opened, the knife line reminds one of the most beautiful planes ever built:


On the blade of my knife is engraved with figures 5 and 8 letters: F-BVFB and 31/05/2003. The registration of Concorde on which I flew, and the flight date. The occasion was the very last commercial flight of an Air France Concorde.

I just published on the blog the story that I had made at the time, with lots of photos.
