What airline colours would you like Concorde in ?

Hi folks, just to mark it’s retirement and very very vague chance of someone else buying it, what airline scheme would you like to see Concorde in ? We’ve seen the picture on here recently of the model in Virgin Atlantic colours but what else would look good ?

I’m thinking BMi, new Aeroflot or an all aluminimum American Airlines ?

What do you think folks ?

I would rather see Concorde carry on flying in Virgin colours than see the fleet relegated to the history books and various museums just yet. So come on Richard, how about it?

I liked the Concorde in the SIA scheme. Actually, the current SIA scheme is slightly different to that one, not much though. I like their current scheme. No new one needed, in my opinion. I agree with you, Mongu, on what you classify the Concorde as.

I just looked at the SIA pic again.

I think it is high time SIA changed their colour scheme!!

I like Concorde, but…sorry to be so blunt, but it is a pice of metal.

BA and AF only. It would be nothing but an insult to the bird to put some other airline colours on her. After being such a momentous emblem of both airlines for so long, can you imagine the likes of Virgin getting their grubby hands on the aircraft? Ok, great initiative for enterprise Richard B. but it would ridicule what she once stood for.

The old BOAC speedbird colours would look great, and I know its nuts but Ariana Afghan would look good too!
