He also mentioned another French Concorde being scrapped at Dakar?after a heavy landing?
This is also mentioned on the website as being "the loss of a Concorde in Dakar".
There was an "incident" at Dakar where an Air France aircraft suffered a tail strike during a heavy landing. It was repaired and returned to service and was then withdrawn and dismantled for parts FIVE YEARS LATER.
I think it's likely that similar inaccurate sensationalism sets the tone for the rest of it.
