I don’t think there is any intention that she should leave the hangar once reassembled. She isn’t going to fly and would disintegrate very quickly if left outside in the elements, and they certainly aren’t going to wheel a large aircraft like that in and out all the time. So, as far as I know, once put back together the Concorde will remain in that hangar permanently (unless the museum manages to build a purpose-built building on newly-acquired land nearby).

Points taken Ian thanks, I was under the impression they might roll her outside for the odd open day. What I’m wondering though is whether or not this will in fact be physically impossible once reassembled ?

I think one of you guys at the recent East Fortune meet was speculating as to the size and height of the hangar doors versus the height of the Concorde plus tail ? :confused:

Hey Steve,

I just ordered myself a rarther attractive Ansett 744 model for my collection, d’ya want me to pass on the details of where I got it…? 😉

Looking at Manhattan from above you can see where Fritz Lang got the idea for the film ‘Metropolis’. I believe the Nazi’s wanted to use the area as a blueprint for future arian super cities in Europe.

Will she definitely be able to leave the hangar once all the bits are reattached ? I know there was some talk about this being difficult to say the least.

Man, i love your pictures, i can never fault them

My sentiments exactly, NYC looks great from above. I take it the anvil shaped clouds are the storms ?
