Concorde should never have been grounded in the first place. A magnificent piece of engineering that Britain can be proud of.

Saw my first one up close and personal the other week at Brooklands. AMAZING !
I would love to see this back in the air again one day. Just does not make sense not having it anymore.

The best plane in the world, killed off by supposed rising costs, and the manufacturer not wanting to support the plane any more.

RB offered to buy BA's stake/ ownership of the plane to keep it going but was turned down...

Sour grapes if you ask me !!!!
