Aerospace Bristol

On the 23rd October I visited Aerospace Bristol, located at Filton Airfield just outside of Bristol. The site is home to a museum of the Bristol Aircraft Company featuring exhibits from the early days of flying up to modern air and spacecraft, with the exhibition culminating with a visit to Concorde 'Alpha Foxtrot' in a new purpose built hanger which allows easy access.
The museum is well worth a visit, and at the time of my visit tickets were valid for 12 months, with many new exhibits on their way.

At least one model of the Concorde should have been kept flying. Now in it's 50th year, Concorde could have appeared at every major UK airshow.

I'm not too sure, they all would have been drained of essential fluids so probably couldn't start, never say never though!

We were hoaxed with these aircrafts. They are specified to carry 119,000 litres of fuel in those wings. That is the equivalent to more than 2 tankers in those wings. Here is how large a 50k litres is www.alibaba.com/product-detail/DOT-trailer-truck-50000-litres-fuel_60108881973.html.
