Just a note to Woodford - 2 days before we left England to Emigrate to Australia - July '71 - I took my kids to see the Concord take off from there - If my memory serves me right ??

That was before I moved to the NW. I’m not aware Concorde visited Woodford - a military airfield. More likely it was Manchester Airport - 5 miles west where I saw it many times including its last departure in October 2003.

G-BOAC is on permanent display at the airport in a special hangar.

Definitely not at Manchester - flew out of and into there many times in the 60s - mostly viscounts

The one in my memory was the first British Concord - not the French - and it was a demo flight - my company did

the fire protection on her  - and we made a special trip to see it . Apart from M/C - the only other airfield in Lancashire able to take Concord was Warton.

@jaytee73, fair enough. Not difficult to know Woodford is not Manchester Airport. :wink:

Don't forget to add the 'e'.

🙂The first one didn't have the "e" - It was only added later  - to appease the French - if memory serves me👨‍🦳

I flew the one on 3 occasions - that had British Airways one side - and Singapore Airlines the other

Two license are not required for educational purposes.  There's only a single computer involved and the purpose of the "one user" is that you can't install it into a VM environment so that it can be used by more than one person from a single install.

I'll know the answer when LM reply. Your logic is sound though. 👍

I live not too far from the Chadderton plant that built the Lancaster.

I can see that Concorde was at the Woodford Airshow in 1971, but I cannot find any information regarding whether it landed or not.

Oh it landed OK - it Must have - because I only saw it take of - and the reaction was awesome noise and dark smoke

Almost identical to the video going around showing the MSFS version taking off😱

A British Airways Concorde did once do a low fly-by down the runway at Barton back in the Nineties, it didn't touch down, but it got very low over the runway, that I do recall. Apparently the crew were quite game to actually try a touch and go there, and asked if they could, but BA's bosses forbade them from attempting it.

I’ve had a reply back from enquiries at LM. They just pointed me to the EULA and appeared to have no interest in discussing the museum’s suitability for a licence.

As they haven’t said it’s not an appropriate use of their software I’ll take it they have no objections to anyone at the Museum purchasing a licence should they so wish to do so.

I’ll write to them in the next day or two.
