      While I agree the captain should have been ignored, there was a lot of pressure on the pilots from UPS to get the deliveries on the ground, on time. The longer the plane is in the air, the more fuel they waste and the longer their trucks have to wait, which means stuff isn't being delivered. The company definitely holds a share of the blame.

      The crash was concerning the CONCORD which left the French airport AFTER take off in front of Concord had lost a metal component from it, (The 747) the story was incorrect since the crash of CONCORD was caused by metal scrap, having fallen from the preceding 747, onto the runway, Concord hit that on take off, the metal compont which had fallen from the 747 punctured the fuel tanks on the Concord. This was absolutely the case, it appears someone who compiled this show has mixed up the aircraft. Terry Offord, Retired Air Traffic Controller.
