In 1997, former Chronicle anchor Peter Mehegan crossed the Atlantic on the Concorde, flying at twice the speed of sound. He landed in London in time for a 6 a.m. pint. Now that’s an early arrival. #Concorde #History #Aviation #Chronicle5 #1990s

“Wait, isn’t that the tugboat from Sail Boston?” One of our editors had that moment while working on a Classic Chronicle episode. It was the Vincent D. Tibbetts Jr., pictured here 40 years apart: 1986 and 2026. #NewEngland #BostonHarbor #Tugboat #ThenAndNow #ClassicChronicle
