Concorde to Brooklands - help needed

For those Concorde lovers, Brooklands Museum in Surrey (where a lot of Concorde was built) has nearly got Concorde (BBDG) - which is currently in Filton in Bristol (not the one that recently flew there).

There is a need to raise some funds for this project, and a web site has been 'created' to help raise funds, through donations, and also selling a CD of pictures/video of Concorde.

Anyone who would like to help out (or just visit) - your interest would be greatly appreciated.

http://pub13.ezboard.com/fconcordesstfrm11 for the site or for the CD

Thanks

[hope this is not interpreted as SPAM, and my apologies if this is your view]

Is this the one they have to chop the wings off to get it down the road?

I was lucky enough to fly it on April 10th last year. A memorable day not only because of the flight, but it was the day they announced it was going out of service.

That's the one !

They were looking to get it 'flown in' by Helicopter, but I believe this has now been rejected - due to the speed it would have to be flown at, to keep it stable.
