Concorde RIP 2003

[Guest Joshieca]

According to a story posted in "News.Com.AU" both BA & Airfrance will retire the planes within weeks. :'(You can find the story [div align=center][link:www.jetdoc.com/|http://members.cox.net/joshieca/jd_main.gif] [link:forums.jetdoc.com/|Visit The Community Forums][link:www.jetdoc.com/NWS/]Live AirNEWS 24/7][/b.

That is a little misleading... AF stated today that it will indeed end Concord flights.....in 2007 and BA has yet to announce when the end of scheduled Concord flights, last news I read on the subject said to look for a statment some time tomorrow.Paul

From the looks of others it will happen this year. :(

Air France said today it would end flights 31 May this year, but keep the aircraft operational in case of demand. Both airlines said the aircraft would be removed from service by October 31 this year. In the last few months Concordes have been operating at times at barely 20% capacity. This according to www.sueddeutsche.de as of today.Misha
