02 A Surprise View of a Concorde at Heathrow

Taxi-ing to the runway, an interesting sight from a by-gone time came into view. Apparently this is the last Concorde which is still held by British Airways. G-BOAB, known previously as Speedbird Alpha-Bravo. It is a totally stripped plane on the inside, which BA wanted to display as a commemorative symbol at Heathrow, but it was not allowed by the new owners of the airport. At the time of our passing it, it is currently parked behind BA's Engineering Workshops with an uncertain future.
