Concorde Capt John Cochrane signed 1975 Royal Observer Corps cover, flown by Concorde. Nice Concorde and Spitfire illustration. John Cochrane (26 July 1930 - 4 November 2006) was a British test pilot for the Anglo-French supersonic airliner, Concorde. On 9 April 1969, John Cochrane flew as co-pilot on the maiden flight of Concorde 002 with Brian Trubshaw as chief test pilot,[4] exactly five weeks after the French sister aircraft first flew.[4] Cochrane would stay with the Concorde test programme for its entirety. Concorde finally acquired its certificate of airworthiness in December 1975 and flew commercially for the first time with British Airways on 21 January 1976. Good condition Est.
