Concorde still looks good.

I live 5 minutes away from Manchester Airport and go their quite frequently, I can't say I've ever seen the top concorde (maybe I'm looking in the wrong place?) I thought their was only one concorde at Manchester and that is situated at the AVP.

Maybe what they've done is meet up at the Airport Pub and gone down the roads at the side of the runway, as I've visited the Airport Pub tonnes of times, its situated at the side of 23R and the AVP is up at the other end next to 5R so cant see the AVP very well from the Airport Pub as taken in the 2nd picture.

Would be interested in seeing the 1st Concorde if their are two at Manchester!

Where the hell is that first picture taken from? That is at Manchester? I never seen that there before.

[Mattch]

thanks guys,,

yes it is manchester to guy above

[Yoshimitsui]

Where is that at Manchester :S

The tail logo is an older one and so is the surroundings.

First pic isn't Manc, it could be anywhere, or more correctly any time frame, infact I'd stab a geuss that that pic is just a random google image.

No way is that in Manchester. Their is only one Concorde and that's at the AVP.

The top picture is not Manchester. Because If it was it would be all over main aviation websites. I been to MAN many times and I only seen one Concorde like Antony has said above which is located at the AVP. FlyUK put it in as a joke? Maybe.


Edit: That is not proof, its a photo uploaded under the Manchester event heading. Doesn't mean it was taking there without any hard evidence.

Edit 2: The first picture is taking at Brooklands <_<

LOL that's a bit daft, why say it's Manchester when it's blatantly not?

[Mattch]

O_o,

heads are going to roll (persumably the CEO but still..)

[GTA-Andy]

How did no one notice this? Did people actually believe Manc had two Conc's?

No I didn't from the start.

1. My own eyes have only seen 1x Concorde at MAN and I surf many related websites to the airport and so on, so yeah.

2. The buildings are nothing like it around the surrounding airport.

Like Matt said above, we knew it wasn't at Manchester, there is only one Concorde at Manchester and thats in the AVP.

Nice find Matt, finding out where it really is :P

It had to be on the web somewhere, since all Concorde's are now a specific location. Thanks Ant =]

[GTA-Andy]

What I meant was how did no one at that website find out. Not here.

Maybe it was added in as a joke? Who knows.

Just spotted this, its definately not MAN, only Concorde that sleeps there is the Speedbird in new colors.
