Remarks: I flew on this Concorde a year later on a supersonic flight from Paris to Manchester.On this particular day the aircraft was delayed for departure as the fire service attended to deal with a leakage of fuel onto the apron.The aircraft shut down on the taxiway for a while until the matter was resolved.Eventually the aircraft was given the all clear to continue its supersonic charter.
Remarks: This Concorde was the first one who landed at my home airport SAWH (Ushuaia - Argentina) on december 1999. This amazing piece of art is parked for ever at the "Musée de l'Air et de l'Espace".

Remarks: Having flown on two supersonic Air France Concorde flights from Paris to MAN it was good to see F-BTSD close up again this time from the viewing park.Caught in a brief spell of sunshine after vacating runway 24.
Remarks: Looking down the stripped AF Concorde cabin being presurved at Le Bourget. You just don't realize how narrow and small this cabin is, until you step inside one!
Remarks: 2 retired Concorde’s being preserved in the musée de l'air et de l'espace at Le Bourget. Looking good in this light! Awesome to walk around and look inside this a/c.
