ETA: That Tornado shouldn't have had too much trouble keeping up with the Concorde, not at mach 2, anyway.

I tried to find the altitude before I posted that, but without success.
The Tornado was low on fuel, over the Irish Sea, and I'd assume at mach 2 uses fuel at a prodigious rate. So four minutes of balls to the wall, playing with a camera, and watching the fuel gage, kept him busy. But you can ask him at his site, Adrian Meredith. You can buy a print signed by him and the Concorde Chief Pilot Mike Bannister, for £50.
