Concorde found @ Heathrow ...

Google Earth/ Digital Satelite Photography is an amazing phenomenon & likely to be phased into FS IMHO.

Here I found Concorde parked near runway 23 LHR. Most images I have found so far are a couple of years old -- & this is obviously one ...

Lol. Good find, Pete.

Rwy 27R looks pretty bumpy there, too. Roll Eyes

We need some higher resolution pictures of the UK! I suppose around London it's better, but how can I zoom in on Duxford?!

Don't think so. It wouldn't be positioned like that. Plus it looks like the active is 27R.
