Imagine if…

There’s been no 70’s oil crisis, no anti noise lobby, no airline bankruptcy’s , no 9/11

What might be the sight at the international terminal of your airport today ?

But of course they’d be too busy shrinking the world to find the time for repaints (lol);)

Probably more airlines would have turned options into orders for Concorde.
IF there would have been no Swissair, Sabena would have become a successful company. Now that they were finally getting a bit profitable, Swissair kane interrupting them. Argh!

If all the interested parties had taken up their speculative orders for Concorde the world would have been a much noisier place for one thing, but imagine the sights and sounds at say LHR’s “Terminal SST” ?

One can’t help wondering however if we would have taken Concorde so close to our hearts had it eventually gone into a more mass kind of production ?

Another chance for Allen to gloat about his models! They really do look fantastic.
Wouldn’t it looked great if it would have really happened 🙁
