Default Concorde,Manchester International

Had to pick up a workmate,had an hour spare.So i dicided to visit the Aviation viewing park,as it was not to far away.Did not relise Concorde was there until i saw the signs for it,looks impesive close up.Seen it a few times on special visits to Newcastle,but never that close up.Also like the way there is a viewing area there.

The concorde is a museum. One of my workmates went last weekend and thought it was brilliant. You have to book in advance though.

I like going to the viewing park on my mountain bike, you can cycle right the way around the runway, it amuses me to point excitedly at planes and try to look alarmed, hoping some passengers see me, I dont really and the Police take a dim view if I carry a bit of old drainpipe.
