Federal Express Concorde o/c?!?!

marvin101001 · 03-05-2004, 12:06 PM

Here’s a challenge for the excellent artists around here!!

I have just finished reading the unofficial biography “OVERNIGHT SUCCESS Federal Express & Frederick Smith Its Renegade Creator.” In it there is discussion on Federal Express suggestions and inquiries into possibly utilizing the Concorde as a means of getting international time-sensitive package across the Atlantic back during the early 80’s!! There is even an article, dated Nov 1, 1981, from the leading Memphis local newspaper “the Commercial Appeal” titled “PURPLE LIGHTNING”

Any artists here care to give their insight as to what the Purple Lightning would look like???

Since it seems like there are several people wanting to do fantasy concords, Maybe, we might be able to per sway someone to do one of these in 1:400!!
