Concorde - join the campaign

Hi all,

The campaign to get Concorde flying again has attracted 2,000
signatures this week!

Please add your support at www.save-concorde.com.

To sum up the situation:
- we aren't arguing with the reasons Concorde went out of service - the
airframes were over 25 years old, whereas the average age of British
Airways fleet is less than five years

- Airbus receives billions of Euros every year in subsidy - it has a
duty to build the best planes it can for the people of Europe

- the A380 and A350 (which hasn't yet started) are highly questionable
projects

- fresh Concorde air-frames could be built by Airbus at modest cost,
and given that R&D has already been written-off, the tickets could be
priced much lower.

PLEASE add your support to the petition at www.save-concorde.com

We'll then be in a stronger position to talk to parties who have the
financial muscle to fund this project (we've already been told things
that can't be published here, but if you contact the Save Concorde
group via the website, you can find out more)

If you are genuinely interested in getting people to look at your site, you
ought to consider putting a "skip" button on the site for those people who
can't view Shockwave, or preferably lose the flashy features on the front
page altogether.

Anyway, what engines are you proposing to use with these new Concorde
airframes?

So you see no problem with adding another highly questionable project.

That makes sense.

Are you sure the average BA plane is 5?

- Airbus receives billions of Euros every year in subsidy - it has a

Agreed, but what does that have to do with Concorde?

This has what do do with Concorde?

- fresh Concorde air-frames could be built by Airbus at modest cost,
and given that R&D has already been written-off, the tickets could be
priced much lower.

The tickets still wouldn't pay the costs.

You have secrets you can't tell on a newsgroup, but you can tell to any
stranger that signs up?

What happened to all the tooling? Is it stored somewhere?

As someone who used to live under its flight path in London (it's 4.30pm,
turn up the radio), do you have a place to vote against its noisy return, or
is this a one-sided democrat vote?

Why would they? The Concorde wasn't built by Boeing.
