This is a question Conspicuous Consumption

Have you ever been photographed sat on a balcony eating a croissant; or wallowed in luxury just for the sake of it? What's the most ostentatious thing you ever seen or done?

Aviation nut eh?
Learner pilot eh?

Flaps go up or down, they do not go out.

Well they "extend" or "retract" really
But what they definitely don't do is go 'down' two words after the gear has just done the same thing :)

That is, of course, if Concorde even had flaps. She doesn't (oo er) but the elevons perform an equivalent job at low speeds.

Oh dear. Did I mention the Champagne?
