Sure is! And if she alos was aloowed a small "nod with the nose" I would think it was a great gimmick!

I see nowhere mentioned that the small group had any interest in making her airworhthy again.

But if that small tank of that special fuel (a couple of gallons perhaps) can make H&S fear for both the workers and the spectators life and health, I can only say that I'm glad I live in Denmark, where we are allowed to hammer ourself over the fingers and dig our own graves, if we can just promise our version of H&S, that we will fall into them ourself ;-)

"On the 31st August 2011, Heritage Concorde received the confirmation from the airport museum manager, that the project had been cancelled, for reasons that the insurance covered only a dead aircraft, and not a live one, as well as health and safety issues – which do not seem to affect the French Concorde at Le Bourget. Heritage Concorde has since been instructed to return to the aircraft to drain the hydraulics and kill the electrics”

Ah it's so good to see that the spirit that developed Concorde and made it into a world beater is alive and well :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

That's a bloody sad attitude
