The Concorde Experience.

Whilst in Barbados I had to go ! It is well worth the $20 admission fee, very friendly and knowledgeable staff, for whom, nothing is too much trouble (same attitude from most of the local people) But the ongoing lightshow/audio experience, whilst impressive, makes photography a challenge to say the least !
Something inside me says this should be in a historic section ! but I find it hard to consider Concorde ‘historic’ !!!
So a few photos of my time there …

Nice to see another example of this fine aircraft undercover? Wonder how many examples around the world are stored in open elements?
Great photos well done!

Nice pics Keith. It still seems all wrong to see that wonderful bird grounded for ever, but she seems loved and well cared for.
