Manchester's Concorde

Some of my recent trip to Manchester Airport, starting off with the resident static aircraft:

Concorde G-BOAC sitting on its own piece of Runway with the Avro RJX in the background.

Much more dignified than being chained to a crusty barge like the one in NYC... and thanks for the Vampire; I love those things.
