According to this blog from 2013:
Vintage Concorde Photo was the one and only time, and occurred in 1989, not 1981. So yes, it would have been Bush.

Carol Concorde landed at SXM 3 times although this was the most famous occasion because of the passenger and the summit with President Bush over the Gulf War. The other 2 times it arrived and departed in the dark, both times to Guadeloupe I believe

torch--dunno, the post linked above said it was the only time. Regardless, it was a beautiful plane.
