Concorde to float into history
London will catch its final glimpse of Concorde next month when the last of the British Airways fleet of seven is towed to its final resting place. The G-BOAA jet will be partially dismantled at Heathrow Airport before beginning its final journey, by road and boat, to the Museum of Flight in Edinburgh. On its route the legendary jet will float along the River Thames past famous landmarks including the Houses of Parliament, the London Eye and the Tower of London. British Airways says the journey will commence on April 4 at Heathrow, shortly after which it will be loaded on to a specially-built pontoon on the Thames. On 6 April the plane will float through central London before heading out into the North Sea, and is scheduled to reach Scotland a week later, where it is expected to be on display by the end of the summer. The BBC News website quotes a spokesman for BA as saying: “It was more of a logistics solution than anything. We cannot fly them any more because we do not have a flight certificate, so it seemed the best way.” Report by Tim Gillett, News From Abroad
