Mike Bannister (born 1949) is an airline pilot. He is most famous as the chief pilot of British Airways Concorde, a post which he held from 1995 until its withdrawal from service in 2003. He joined the British Airways crew of Concorde in 1977 where he became its youngest pilot, ending with the last ever flight which was captained by Captain Les Brodie and where Mike acted as co-pilot.
Mike keeps rare Vietnamese Pot Bellied Pigs and this led to his colleagues lovingly applying the nickname 'Porky' to Mike.
