well i wont be able to get to Filton for various reasons, the roads around will be closed, the Bus service has been cut back and my dad wont be able to make it up to give me a lift. However there is plans for concorde to fly over bristol airport and over the clifton suspension bridge, which will either mean it will fly over my house on approach to bristol or it will fly over on departure for filton. So if that is the case i will do my best to get some pictures of her as she does. I am debating whether or not Bristol airport would be a good choice as its a hassle and quite an expense to get there, If the weather is good then i might take the trip.
Anyone who is lucky enough to be going to Filton let me know.

Hiya Craig!
There was an interesting sight today! The Concorde is coming up the Hudson River on a barge. She just past the Statue of Libery! What a sight on the TV to see! Sad too I must say! She will be lifted onto the Intrepid air and Sea Museum, which is moored here in Manhattan!
I am sure we will be able to see some shots of this magnificent event on Airliners.net in the days to come.
