The aircraft flew a total of 1282 hours 9 minutes. Its final flight took place on December 24th 1981. In late 2003,the aircraft was donated to the Brooklands Museum for restauration and in May 2004 she was moved to the museum's Weybridge site |

G-BBDG (cn 202/13523) The restoration G-BBDG is progressing well here at the Brooklands Museum. She arrived in April-2004, packed in hundreds of crates and after a terrific effort by the museum's volunteers she's nearing completion. Note the new all-white look, ready for a repaint into her original British Airways scheme. It is amazing to see her like this now, compared with just a year ago when she was in pieces all over the car park... |

G-BBDG (cn 202/13523) The first opportunity to see the cockpit in the 32-year history of this Concorde. This airframe performed much of the pre-certification testing for Concorde and spent many years stored at Bristol-Filton. Moved here two years ago in pieces, her re-assembly will be complete by mid-summer 2006. Huge kudos to the great folks at the Brooklands Museum for all their hard work. Notice the rather distorted and discoloured view through the complex titlitng-nose cockpit glass. |

F-WTSB (cn 201) To get the light behind me, I walked round the perimeter road to a crash gate near the runway threshold and joined a crowd of Parisians watching the Air Show 'for free'.Concorde started carrying passengers the next January (see my 782379 on this site) |

G-BBDG (cn 202/13523) The central fuselage section of the first production Concorde, awaiting re-assembly for display here at the Brooklands museum. More Concorde fabrication was done here than any other location, hence the importance of a Concorde amongst the excellent collection. Certainly glad I brought my graduated ND filters today! |

G-BBDG (cn 202/13523) Quite a contrast between the (truncated) nose of the Concorde and the forward section of the Vickers Viscount (XT575). Both aircraft were extensively fabricated here at Brooklands. The back end of the Viscount is lost forever, but the rest of the first production Concorde is here, scattered around the site in boxes, crates and piles of bits! Soon she'll be rebuilt - I hope they've got the instructions! :-) |

G-BBDG (cn 202/13523) Nose and tail sections of the most elusive Concorde of them all - the very first production aircraft, she was in "secret" storage at Bristol-Filton for thirty years. Finally she can be admired by the public. Soon to be reassembled and preserved here at the Brooklands museum. |
