HC Deb 06 April 1976 vol 909 c154W
Sir G. de Freitas

asked the Secretary of State for Industry whether an early production line Concorde will be earmarked for eventual transfer to the Royal Air Force Museum.

Mr. Kaufman

The Royal Air Force Museum, Hendon, was amongst those institutions considered as possible homes for the Concorde prototype aircraft 002 and pre-production aircraft 01, but it did not have a useable runway, and the cost of breaking the aircraft down for transit by road and reassembling it would have been very substantial. There are no plans for the disposal of any other Concorde aircraft.
