would i be right in `guessing` that unlike a certain `tin triangle` even the likes of SD flying again is simply a fantasy? the vulcan arrived straight from display with a hangar full of spares , of which nothing like that is available for concorde? and whilst `doable` funds would a slight factor..

thank you for comfirming what i thought Christiaan , that the vulcan is sadly a `unique` example - as even teasin` tina is in a better state that SD (no disprepect - XM715 is kept in taxi condition) , and even so , the wonderful team who look after her have said she wont be flying in displays anytime soon (read ever);
i have read about `SCG` - and yes i have seen your opinion on them elsewhere - they did seem to `big up` the engine testing earlier this year - then went silent , any word on the results?

thank you as well M2Dude - i am just a humble fan of the concorde , being born after she first flew it was sad to see she was never built in the numbers they thought - but such a lasting legacy on shrinking the world - i doubt anything will surpass in many years.

i have managed to borrow the dvd`s for the BA concorde by ITVV (300 minutes worth) - and can totally recommend them if you want to see how the workforce `up front` do ther job within concorde - Captain Dave Rowlands , First Officer Les Brodey and FLight EngineerRoger Bricknell.
guided tour of concorde , and i did like the segments on just how much temperature effected performance - and the section (i think 20 minutes worth) explaining just how important the fuel system played in the flight `56.5 going aft` i do understand now
