seems a bit odd but hey! Heathrow is the home for Concorde :-)


Nooooo... Filton is the home of Concorde. They were born there and those
that don't survive will, no doubt, go there to die



And...the only chance of keeping at least 1 Concorde flying for special
occasions will be if they do retire one at Filton where they've got the
people and facilities there to service her.

Does anyone know if BA have officially announced the retirement plans yet?

http://www.concordesst.com/retire/diary.html seems to have a comprehensive
'diary' of events. It appears from there that the 'last ever' flight will
be G-BOAF from Heathrow to Filton on Nov 17th although the 'real' retirement
will be on October 24th when 3 Concordes land at LHR at 90 second intervals.
