40 Years On: When Concorde Flew Golfers To Scotland

This Saturday, July 20, will celebrate the 40th anniversary of the iconic Concorde aircraft that landed at Royal Air Force Leuchars (RAF Leuchars), transporting American golfers to Fife to compete in the Open at St Andrews. RAF Leuchars, which holds IATA code ADX, is located on the east coast of Scotland and, throughout the Cold War, was the station for many of the RAF fighter aircraft that patrolled northern UK airspace.
