Certainly unusual Mike. This demonstrates the constant problems with operating a supersonic passenger service, even landing/taking off & flying the aircraft subsonically over populated areas. Many airlines that would have liked to operate Concorde were prevented from doing so by public opinion or for political reasons. Concorde was briefly operated under a joint agreement between BA & Singapore Airlines back in 1977.
This article explains it. http://www.concordesst.com/history/events/sia.html

PS. I don't quite know what the 102 means. I always referred to the aircraft as Concorde.

Of course. Silly me. I remember now.
Concorde 001 (F-WTSS) was the first Concorde prototype to fly on 2nd March 1969 from Toulouse, France. 002 (G-BSST) was the British prototype which followed on 9th April from Filton, Bristol. If the Singapore Airlines aircraft in your photo is the prototype it would be 002 rather than 001.

OK. I'm sure you're correct. I'm no expert on this.

the four prototyps are named like this: 001,002,003 and 004.

when they started the production, they started numbering like this: 101,102,...

001 is now standing inside the Air and Space museum at Le Bourget airport (Paris). i've been on board of it...it's empty on the inside (only some measurement equipment, no seats). it looked  very small. i have a photo of myself in it, my head against the ceiling and my arms spread with my fingertips almost on both sides of the cabin...very small!  the cabin, very small too, looked amazing!

Hmmm, speaking of unusual, here's a supersonic that was in a race using fs2002 back in Feb./Mar. of this year.
Anyone regognize it?

Mmmm, nope. Well here's another shot from overhead, and I should add that it's a ficticious craft as is the space shuttle on it's back, though it is based on some real stuff that NASA/ Dryden research have been working on. 8)

Aha, I see... very clear. Like the 747-200 is also the 742, right?

Haha, well i must first appoligize for having even put it in this thread on the Concorde featured, so I'll make the comment on the very unusual and beautiful shot of it.
That is a wonderful craft, and it's cool to see another name on the side than what is the usual.

Now to my unusual craft,......The SST is designated the "SR-75" and was created by a very talented fellow who made several planes for the "Battle of the Airlines 2003" "Mission Moon" I dont remember his real name but he goes by the handle "Ace Lomcevak" (not even sure I spelled the last name right) and he is the head of "Aeroworks" and he makes some pretty cool planes.
This SST was featured in the last stages of the race and the contestants were to transport our shuttle on ths bird to Kennedy Space Center in Florida, where in the next stage the Shuttle would be launched and we would then fly it to the moon & back to land at a facility in Nevada.
I myself didnt place all that high(160th or so out of 500 pilots) but I did manage to finnish and make it to the moon.
Im looking forward to the next race which should be comming up next year(I hope) and am anxious as to what it will be like this time. Im sure that "Race runner Ray" will have something interesting in store for us.

Yeah, as I said im so sorry for putting it in your thread, I just wasnt looking hard at the category, hehe.
But it is based on some top secret stuff being done at the Dryden Research facility in Califonia, in fact there is a prototype designated the XB-70, an SST which "Ace" based his SR-75 on.
I'll do some research and I think I may even have some photo's of them in my files, but heh, they are so full of stuff it's hard to locate stuff sometimes.
And I'll put them in a thread elsewhere, where it belongs, and again I appoligize for butting in. It was late, and I should have been in bed

Rodger that Mikey, I just dont want to intrude, and I will always at least try to post where it's proper.
Thanks, I got some photos, from NASA, and when I get home from work today I'll refromat/resize and show'em to ya, yeah they are interesting huh? That thing was a real bugger to handle with the shuttle on it's back too, not to mention the engine failure that happened 5 min. into the flight and got Diverted to Cuba of all places for repairs.

Hmm, lol

Ah, yes i read about that. A BA paint is on the starboard side and SA on port.
