is of the last Concorde to be built and the last one to fly. Well 13 years later, it is mobile again to a new museum where it was built at Filton near Bristol in the SW of England. I was brought up within 8 miles of here. Bristol has a fine aviation heritage.

Ah yes , the Concorde. I remember it made big news here in the states back in '79? for all the noise it's engines make. There was a big debate if it should be allowed to fly here or not because of it.

The Soviets actually copied the design...but their plane didn't work very well.

Do you know of any on display in the US? That would be cool to see.

G-BOAG is at Boeing Field Seattle (http://www.heritageconcorde.com/g-boag-214)

G-BOAD is on the USS Intrepid (https://www.intrepidmuseum.org/The-Intrepid-Experience/Exhibits/Concorde)in New York City. I don't know if any others are in the US.
