LOL, i think he is quite rightly pointing out that most aircraft use more fuel than 'your average tank'  Tongue

YES. Concorde was beautiful, tragedy she is no longer in the skies...though im sure she will return someday soon!

It would cost a hell of a lot to get something like that in the air again plus maintenance and fuel costs and is one hell of a project. It would be great if she did but I seriously doubt she will fly again... plus, we have more important aircraft to focus our money on! (XH558, G-CVIX)!   Grin Smiley
